Designed with consciousness and sustainability at its heart, this penthouse suite in Berlin's Mitte district certainly wows in terms of location and interiors. From a first glimpse, as you walk through the door, it is clear that the consistent use of wood as a key material was a well-thought-out design choice that brings us back to nature despite the home's city location.

Contemporary mid-century styles find influence from Scandinavia, while warm neutral tones create a soothing space to relax after the day's adventures exploring the city. Floods of light gently enter the main living space through the floor-to-ceiling glass fronts – providing the conditions for clear thinking and new visions.

As you wake up here each morning, take the time to admire the carefully selected modern artwork with a cup of coffee in hand – the pieces are by local artists and therefore change regularly. Or why not start your days out on the balcony roof terrace amidst the crisp morning air?

With a seamless transition into each space, we particularly love the hidden kitchen, which can be closed away entirely by shutting the cupboard doors – or presented as somewhat of an art installation when left open.

From the living area to the bedroom and the en-suite bathroom, the natural light flows and injects life into the space. Underfloor heating ensures your toes will be kept warm during the winter months. And the building's inner courtyard (brimming with plants such as thyme, wall pepper, meadow sage, fragrant bedstraw, and raspberry bushes) will welcome you to enjoy tranquil moments outside when the weather is kind.

Relax, picnic, meditate, read, converse – from this home, the art of relaxation is encouraged so that you can enjoy the local area's fast-paced lifestyle, impressive museums and vibrant nightlife with ease.
