Alte Schule Brandenburg

Urbanists tired of the city will find peace and relaxation in rural surroundings in the Old School Brandenburg in the northwest of Berlin. This former school dating back to 1920 on the outskirts of the small village of Sechzehneichen has been transformed into a holiday home with two apartments – on a small budget but a wealth of ideas.

Kliffhuus

Kliffhuus in the Nieblumer district of Goting on the North Sea island of Föhr is sure to surprise you. From the outside, you will only notice at a second glance that the house is built as a split-level construction. There are, in fact, four levels in this small gable roof house. The arrangement of the floors, shifted by half a level in each case, creates a flowing set of spaces that are separate yet connected by visual relationships.

Schmidhuber

On the outskirts of Tabing, a small village near Bavaria’s Chiemsee, the outbuilding of an historic farmhouse has been replaced by modern timber architecture.

die kleine Acht

On the outskirts of Lindenhagen in the Uckermark region of north-eastern Brandenburg, Berlin architect Thomas Kröger has converted a 1950s estate house into a fantastic holiday home. The extraordinary transformation of this compact saddle-roofed house with its square contour is evident from the outside: large windows open the building out to the landscape, the roof features two huge dormers, and the façade is divided into several plastered sections.
