Copenhagen-based Australian architect & designer, , has unveiled the interior of Lullua Music Studio – a soft, textural paradise nestled in the heart of Berlin’s Charlottenburg. The studio for voice, music, and education stands as a “warm and restful environment to experience the joy of music”, says Broom. The beautifully layered scheme of natural materials and muted tones creates an introspective space, emulating a sense of prevailing calm we all are searching for in the current global madness.
Lullua Music Studio breathes new life into a 120-year-old building that was once a pharmacy. Traces of its former life still linger, sensitively ushered into the contemporary design. Door frames retrain their former language, featuring beautiful stepped detailing. The interwoven relationship between past and present continues into the bathroom, where original floor tiles bring colour and character to the room. A large trough style enamel basin nods to the historical voice of the interior. A natural stone shelf and custom-made oak mirror bring a touch of contemporary back into the room, creating a delicately balanced celebration of the two worlds.
A Reform kitchenette in ‘Iron’ linoleum sits in the corner of the rear studio; an essential feature that often would be quietly hidden away, becomes another opportunity for beautiful design. “It was important for us, that the kitchenette didn’t feel out of place in the rear studio and so we chose to celebrate it with the arched stone splash-back that becomes a piece of artwork and echoes the arched theme throughout the project”, says Broom.
The designer goes on to explains the collective aim of her studio and client was to “create a peaceful space with hues that soothe and comfort, providing a sense of tranquillity conducive to learning”. Both parties placed great importance on incorporating natural materials and a sense of tactility into the design, a driving force that is easily recognised in the finished interior.
Heavy woven-linen full-length bring a softness to the space both aesthetically and acoustically. Sheer curtains line the front and rear windows of the classroom, their semi-translucent quality filtering sunlight into the space. Light jumps around the room, pooling beneath an open window, before bouncing off custom arched mirrors that hang from the wall. The glossy black C.Bechstein grand piano stands boldly against the natural oak floors and mushroom coloured walls. The muted scheme provides the perfect background for guests to become lost and enthralled in the joy of their craft.
