At home: Sebastian Warschow

I am more than willing to make a trip to my personal no-go-area, Friedrichshain, for Sebastian, one of the best dressed men in Berlin. He proves to be equally talented in styling himself and his apartment. His spacious place is furnished around two white, brass decorated cupboards he inherited from his grandparents. The huge flower object next to the sofa is actually a lamp and corresponds with the cupboards. I am pretty sure Sebastian is the only one who can make this rather weird item look contemporary. (We are very interested to find out if this might be a designer's item - does anyone know?)

Lovely exceptions from the orange-retro-monotony Friedrichshain usually offers are Aunt Benny and No Fire, No Glory!

This week we'll be posting images from that we'd previously only published in the Stil in Berlin Print Issue we did last December. Since the copies are all out now, we thought we'd share the photos, for anyone who didn't get a copy.

Berlin is cold, freezing and algid. It's no fun running through brown slush-covered streets in the hopes of meeting someone who's opted for aesthetics rather than functional clothing. But don't get me wrong, I do not suggest you to dress in style and freeze all day. Rather we had the idea to go into the warm homes of our subjects, visit them in their living rooms, and photograph them not with chattering teeth, but relaxed and calm. And besides that, as a way to present the way some Berliners live. Like our Cut! series, this will be in addition to our normal street approach.

Yoske is a friend and my language exchange partner. I teach him German, he teaches me Japanese (if we do not spend our time savouring miso soup or listening to piano tunes). Besides he is the founder of Koiklub, whose latest stroke of genius was the transformation of a Spätkauf at Torstraße, selling original Japanese products and the latest Onitsuka Tiger shoes. The one he is wearing are in store from July. I say they are flesh-colored, he doesn't like that.
