RE RUIN
HOME BERLIN
art
Building their home amid the ruins of an abandoned GDR property in east Berlin gave artist Anselm Reyle and architect Tanja Lincke the chance to rediscover the beauty of creative freedom. The home and its surroundings are defined by the juxtaposition between Reyle’s maximalism and Lincke’s affinity for the raw beauty of functional materiality.
“OUR TASTES ARE CONTRARY, BUT WHEN WE DO THINGS TOGETHER IT’S PERFECTLY BALANCED. WE UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER. IT*S NEVER A COMPROMISE.”
The story featuring the home and studio of Anselm Reyle and Tanja Lincke is in Ark Journal VOL III.

A ROOM WITH A VIEW
A diminutive wooden dwelling on stilts among forest trees focuses attention on interior details to heighten the contrast between its small scale and the vastness of nature.
CASE STUDY
— NEW FOLK
Whether using traditional or innovative materials, designers lean on the craft and expertise of former practitioners to carve, shape, mould or weave.
THE SHAPE OF LIGHT
— ARK X GUBI
In collaboration with Gubi, and to celebrate the brand’s new lighting collections, Ark Journal’s creative team produced a photo essay inspired by the Californian mid-century modern architectural style.
