The wooden floors in this place are AMAZING. Other than that I don't see much going on. Am I missing something?

I like the focus on functionality. There is something that hearkens back to a simpler time, when we werent' so concerned with how things looked.

The floor is gorgeous, but . . .

I will say it's not pretty or charming but I agree with modfan; it serves a purpose, looks well used and homey.

When was that Modfan? Do you mean pre mass-production?

I like how the bedroom area feels like a separate room, still light and airy.

The space is well organized and clean - but it looks rather drab...

I like this! It looks lived in and clean. Kinda modern and worn at the same time.

It would be nice to see some pops of color to add depth to the place like a bright throw, large piece of artwork or flowers.

I love the couch by the front door! It looks like it was some sort of bed in a previous life? Can you tell us more about it?

Kitchens in Europe are either god-awful or great, this one is great. I love Berlin!

that is a gorgeous wooden floor and this is a very well-organized apartment, simple and lovely. I agree with whoever said that it's nice the way it's not so 'designed'.

There is something so sweet about this place. Neat, loved and enjoyed.

Not too much to look at, despite the gorgeous wooden floors. The small rugs in the living room look rather out of place.
