house envy!

 







i guess it serves me right that after a lifelong pursuit of large living spaces (i must have inheritet this from my father, who couldn't stand small rooms...) i ended up in the world's most expensive city, particularly when it comes to housing. no matter whether you buy or rent your property here, it is never more but a few square feet, and even in the really expensive areas where people pay big bucks for designer houses, they tend to be on the small side. unless you are nick candy, i suppose. ..

how very refreshing then to see that you actually can live in a world class city and still live in all the grandezza of a belle etage, which not only commands vast rooms with extra high ceilings, but is so bang in the middle of the (old) centre of berlin (at least for our, pre-wall-came-down, generation), that you cannot even say the words 'ku-damm' in their full length before you are actually there. and which already is so prettily furnished that the pics above don't do it any justice, but pam and steff have given their place a real personality, albeit a large one... house envy!!!
