Bootshaus „Elektra“, Berlin–Oberschöneweide, Peter Behrens, 1910/11

July 2014

This house strikes the eye by a funny proportion. From the street side – where the usually published photos are taken from – it seems as if the roof ran down a little too much, the two upper storeys being covered with clinkers. Boathouses in general should promise fun indeed, not just this one by Behrens. The river side shows a more monumental sight, but also a shabbiness (not ugly) and disuse. But some not-too-hasty restoration works took place in the summer as went there, so it may already look different.
