Privathaus Modernisierung – für Planbauwerk

A two-storey private home — the architects at Planbauwerk had developed a well-considered concept for a comprehensive modernisation. The challenge: the clients were unable to visualise the spatial qualities from the 2D drawings alone. Matthias Knab Matthias Knab Matthias Knab In close coordination with the architects, design variants and material studies were developed. Details that appeared unassuming on plan became visible in three-dimensional space and could be refined accordingly. Matthias Knab Matthias Knab Matthias Knab Based on the planning documents, photorealistic visualisations of the interiors and an outdoor area were produced. Considered lighting and authentic material representation made th... More

Café Bellou Coffee – Hannover

A small café in a prime location in Hannover — around 35 m² that had to be designed with precision. From concept through construction drawings to on-site coordination, the entire project was managed from a single point of contact — and coordinated remotely. Matthias Knab Matthias Knab Within a compact footprint, clearly defined zones were created: a generous counter as the heart of the café, the functional coffee preparation area behind it, a two-person table and standing tables with bar stools for guests inside, and an inviting outdoor area. The design concept combines the functional demands of a hospitality setting with an atmosphere that encourages guests to linger — every square metre cons... More

Privathaus – für DOA Architektur

An existing private house in Speyer, extended with a new addition and comprehensively modernised — developed in collaboration with DOA Architekten. Beyond pure visualisation, interior architecture expertise shaped the design of the spaces: material concepts, spatial atmosphere and lighting were developed jointly. Matthias Knab Matthias Knab Building on an architectural base concept, the interior design was refined through close collaboration. Material studies, colour concepts and lighting direction emerged from ongoing exchange with the architects. Photorealistic visualisations made every design decision tangible — from the existing building through to the new extension — allowing clients and architects to exper... More

Zahnarztpraxis BellaDent – Heidelberg

A new dental practice opening in a newly built property in Heidelberg. The complete design concept — from reception and consultation room through the staff area to the treatment rooms — was developed from scratch, visualised, and implemented on site. Matthias Knab Matthias Knab Matthias Knab A dental practice places particular demands on interior architecture: patients should feel comfortable and at ease from the very first moment, while workflows must remain functional and hygiene standards maintained throughout. The concept runs consistently from the reception area through the consultation room and staff room to the individual treatment rooms — each space with its own function, yet connected by a shared d...

Bestandstransformation – Collini Center

A 57 m² apartment in the brutalist Collini Center in Mannheim, virtually unchanged since the 1970s, was carefully modernised. The result combines contemporary living comfort with the architectural heritage of the iconic concrete building on the Neckar river. Matthias Knab Matthias Knab The Collini Center in Mannheim is a brutalist structure of exceptional architectural value. The apartment was comprehensively renovated with the aim of preserving the building's historic character while adapting the interiors to contemporary living standards. Matthias Knab Matthias Knab The floor plan was thoughtfully revised to retain the spatial structure while making it feel more generous. Removing a pass-through window opens the... More

Neue Schmiede

Take the ageing premises of an “old forge” and combine it with the requirements of a modern and atmospheric office building. Voilà: we are virtually starting from scratch. The aim was to create a headquarters for a family office - a lively, flexible place to work and meet. For different companies, requirements and fields of activity. A place that nevertheless or precisely because of this (!) connects and creates identity. From the interior design concept to the signage to the corporate goods, a whole world was to be created here - it's a family thing!

Wasserturm Bad Segeberg

The property: a listed old water tower in the heart of Bad Segeberg, in the immediate vicinity of the Karl May Festival venue. The vision: to create an entire hotel area with the historic water tower at its heart. Speaking of historic: the addition “listed building” is almost a given. And speaking of the tower: the building is round. An absolute challenge in terms of interior design. During the extensive refurbishment of the building, the building's condition had to be preserved, taking into account all monument protection requirements, but the building still had to be brought up to a highly modern standard in terms of energy and substance. The high safety requirements also had to be met and the design had to be as barrier-free... More

Extraordinary Living

Daylight only sparsely penetrates the north-facing box windows into this Viennese apartment situated in a turn-of-the-century ‘Altbau’ building. SCHÖNSTIL develops a new living concept based on the appealing splendor of the rounded arch entryway. The adjoining library and dining area were immersed in infinite deep-sea blue. And, finally, the previously unused hallway takes on meaning. The adapted interior is complemented by a custom-designed mirrored buffet, several existing pieces, and a selection of new acquisitions.

The mix of modern elements and existing old heirlooms blends seamlessly with the charm of the old Viennese building. An office with an individual touch. Schönstil Schönstil Schönstil More

Lieben Wir

A former tailor shop was to become the new coffee hotspot. A coffee concept store in the heart of Vienna was desired. The new interior design now shines in a modern design with a well-thought-out store area. The dominant colors of pink and orange present the store in a fresh and cheerful aesthetic. A small seating area and a long high table invite customers to linger for a while. Organic shapes can be found on the walls as well as in numerous elements such as the custom bar and bench. Intelligent use of space means that even the short stopover for takeaways is optimally designed. Nicole Viktorik Nicole Viktorik Nicole Viktorik More
