Some interiors really do strike my mind. Like this one, located in Berlin and owned by 032c creator, Joerg Koch. "Like any German boy from the provinces, I dreamt of living in New York," said Joerg to T Magazine.

The former Catholic parish and community center was built in the mid-1960s by the celebrated architect and city planner Werner Düttmann and is considered to be a significant contribution to Germany's Brutalist vernacular. The purple walls and floors, the cool concrete ceilings- I am really into that…
