Baker's choice. Dense with flavour, light on filler.
Summary
Berlin-based architecture firm Bruzkus Greenberg has redesigned a 75-square-metre penthouse apartment in the Prenzlauer Berg neighbourhood. The centerpiece of the redesign is a blue-stained wooden core ("blue box") that houses key functions including the entrance, built-in banquette seating, and storage.
