+...LoFt GLeiMsTRaSsE...+





Loft Gleimstrasse located in Berlin, designed by Graft.
It's the transformed room of a typical 19th-century building into “unfolded cocoon for an open mind”.





Most rooms like kitchen, living room and bedroom are designed with openness in mind while storage areas, beds, sofas, closets and staircases are hidden in a sculptural wall construction. The kitchen is carved of a single block and is the heart of the loft. All surfaces in the kitchen, including furniture, walls, floor and ceiling, as well as all surfaces of the core, are covered with a high quality concrete plaster. All other surfaces are made with a sophisticated drywall technology.

Folding windows and doors are used on the northern and southern facades which can be completely opened to extend the space with two 13-meters balconies. The whole loft design is the balance between the gallery and the studio.
