Palermo is a city of contrasts, where baroque splendor meets morbid charm and a lively atmosphere. In the capital of Sicily, Stefan Koppelkamm – graphic designer, photographer and author – has fulfilled his dream of having his own atelier in a baroque palazzo. During the time he is not using the studio, it can be rented.
Atelier Palermo is located in a narrow street in Palermo’s old town, in the immediate vicinity of old aristocratic palaces and prestigious museums. The 150-square-metre studio apartment on the third floor of the refurbished Palazzo San Gabriele provides rooms for working and living. The heart of the apartment is the 64-square-metre studio, which extends up to the roof ridge with an impressive ceiling height of seven meters. A stairway leads to an open gallery with a working area. The kitchen-living room with a ceiling height of five meters also conveys a generous ambience. There are two bedrooms with double beds (with an additional sleeping area on the gallery if required) and two bathrooms. The apartment is sunny all day long and has an – in the old town unusual – unobstructed view from the front windows.
What to do
IIn the neighbourhood there are numerous bars, cafés and restaurants; strolling around the colourful markets; exploring the old town with its churches and palazzi; visiting the museums, beach and exploring the island.
