THIS HAMBURG HOUSE WOULD MAKE ANY MOTHER PROUD

April 28, 2008

Exterior of a white Hamburg home with a red door

Nicky Graebert’s second family home in Hamburg, Germany
ALL PHOTOS IN THIS POST COURTESY OF NICKY GRAEBERT , HIS MOM AND DAD!
Well here is another home…done in true Nicky Graebert’s mom’s style.
A traditional exterior, where conventional tradition is left at the front door…with interiors that are modern, playful, colorful and adventuresome. I like the fact that Nicky’s mom uses color and lighting so wisely and boldly throughout her interiors.
In an earlier post, I showed you photos of a delightful first family home sent to me by Nicky Graebert of Hamburg, Germany. Nicky is the proud son of a design and decor enthusiast – his mom – Gabriele Schloss-Graebert .
As I said in my previous post, I met Nicky on A Small World…I actually was asking if anyone had photos they wanted to share of great designs and interiors. Nicky was the first to respond with a huge compliment to his mother, Gabriele, and her interior decor skills – she has artfully decorated three of the family’s homes – as a hobby I might add!

Living and dining rooms (above)In the dual living room dining room above, the dark hardwood floors are complimented with warm yellow walls. Modern well chosen minimal furniture provides conversation areas throughout the expansive room.

You’ll notice both the color and from time to time you’ll see antlers on the walls of the house…here’s what Nicky writes:
“…I am glad you like the style. I don’t mind if you use the pics as inspiration….
…the animals have been used mainly in one Hamburg home because the property is the extension of a huge park called “deer park”. One part of the park is actually like a small zoo……don’t worry we haven’t killed these animals…some of them are like 100 years old…
…the colour is my fathers idea…he does it in all our homes……
Best of luck with your blog.
Regards,
Nicky”

Check out this all-in-one-kitchen above. It seems to have a sink, cooktop and storage all in one unit. I love the light art above this kitchen console. It seems it changes with the mood of the chef!Red stairwell with tile landing, large mirror and a Buddha head

Red staircase leading up to a red landing

Red bedroom with graphic wallpaper, white crown molding, crystal chandelier and a Turkish rug

Bright color from Nicky’s dad in the stairwell and in the bedroom provide a rich classic accent to an otherwise modern interior. Contrast these rooms with the serene appeal of the grey toned ultra modern spa-like bathroom below.

Ultra modern spa like bathroom with stand alone tub and tile shower with glass walls

Again, another well crafted and well designed home by Nicky Graebert’s mom, Gabriele (and his dad too we now have found)!

Thank you to the Graebart family for letting us “SEE THIS HOUSE”!!!
One more Graebart home to come….a lovely London pied-a-terre…stay tuned.

Custom millwork. Steel-framed doors. A main level that finally flows the way it should. Every space here earns its place, nothing feels like leftover square footage.

A blank wall isn’t neutral, it’s a missed opportunity. The right piece doesn’t just fill space, it gives a whole room a reason to exist.

The spaces that get it right pair it with warm oak, aged brass, and something worn-in: an antique dresser, a vintage runner, a hand-thrown vase.

Heidi Caillier Design took this historic San Francisco home and layered floral wallpaper, striped drapery, checked linens, and antique textiles room after room without a single one feeling overdone. Marble mantels, gilt mirrors, brass fixtures, and warm wood floors do the quiet work of holding it all together.
This is what happens when “more” is chosen on purpose.
Save this for the masterclass in mixing prints. 🔖
