Hamburg

This photo series delves into Hamburg's Brick Expressionist architecture—a bold, sculptural style that emerged in the 1920s, characterized by dynamic forms and richly textured clinker brick façades. Landmarks like Fritz Höger’s Chilehaus, with its ship-like prow, and the Sprinkenhof, adorned with ornamental terracotta, exemplify the movement's fusion of modernist ambition and artisanal detail. Set against the backdrop of the Kontorhaus District, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, these images celebrate the enduring legacy of a style that transformed Hamburg’s skyline into a rhythmic interplay of form, light, and material.
