The home is decidedly contemporary, with symmetrical pitched-box sections mirroring eachother with large windows at either end. The interior is lined with bookshelves which reach high into the tall span of the open space. Continuity is an important part of Nobis’ design, where living spaces and work spaces roam open and free while private sections are tucked away out-of-sight. It’s a masterful work, a stunning example of modern architecture and the full depth of the creativity of the home’s architect and occupant, Susanne Nobis. [photography by roland halbe]
