Meis­ter­zimmer @NZZ

The old cotton mill in Leipzig is a melting pot for creative professionals. Numerous studios, galleries, workshops, a cinema, several theatres and shops have taken over this large factory site, located four kilometers away from the city centre.

As we do every year, in mid-January we publish the holiday homes that our readers particularly liked last year. In part 4, you will find the holiday homes with the best guest feedback.

The early morning view from the giant picture windows is one of endless brick façades, rail tracks and a yard, with an expansive sky looking down over it all. Before my eyes, artists wander in and meet the cameras of the day’s first tourists. ...

The UA-HomeStories are a series of articles that tell about the people and stories behind the URLAUBSARCHITEKTUR houses. They portray the character of a place and make us experience the visions and unique architectural concepts of the people who conceived them. With the HomeStories, we want to give the reader a glimpse behind the facades of the URLAUBSARCHITEKTUR houses, show them in a very personal light and narrate them from within. The winter holidays are the perfect time for relaxed wandering through the stories...
