Ornaments with an address and a history

The magic of Leipzig’s stairwells captivates everyone who sees them. Spacious corridors and halls adorned with elaborate decorations, stucco, paintings, wood carvings, vibrant tiles, and ornamental glass panels.

I have been captivated by this magic since 1990. What began as a student weekend project has now spanned 29 years of collecting, documenting, uncovering, and restoring patterns. An incredible variety of timeless shapes and colors, and a love of detail.

Every pattern has an address and a story to tell.

Discover your personal favorite pattern and take a piece of Leipzig home with you.
