Artist’s vintage industrial living space

This vintage industrial living space is located in the city of Cologne in Germany. Its décor is very apt for the person that lives here. Mo Rehkopp is an artist that creates her work using old letterpress printers’ type.

The space itself looks as though it could have originally been a factory or workshop. There’s an expanse of wooden floorboards, large rooms with wide openings that flow into each other and Crittall-type doorways that allow the light to enter. In addition, many of the things furnishing her home would have originated in that type of establishment.

Metal lockers (from an old glass factory) now houses shoes. An industrial trolley from an Italian textile factory acts as the coffee station. The large, glass-fronted cabinet looks like it could once have lived in a pharmacy or laboratory. Even the smart, stainless steel kitchen looks like it belongs in an upmarket restaurant!
