We were pleased to have the opportunity to paint a suite of offices in one of our favourite Berlin buildings this Winter: The Haus des Lehrers on Alexander Platz.

The Haus des Lehrers (House of Teachers) (1964) was designed by Hermann Henselmann. Its splendid 4-sided decorative frieze in the socialist realist style by Walter Womacka is a tribute to the teaching profession.

The view as we laboured painting white on white walls was pretty schön....
Here is a photo of Biggie Smalls (our bike trailer) and I in the snow in front of the Haus des Lehrers:
Check out the sharp feature wall we painted in the boardroom...and note the original furnishings from the 1964 kit-out of the building - very chic, verrry Mad Men!
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We greatly appreciate it!
