CHILEHAUS - amazing German Brickwork

Built in 1922-24 for client H.B. Sloman with architect F.Hoger. Was first building in the Kontorhaus ( office or counting) district of Hamburg. An icon of Expressionism in an inspiring environment of modernity and tradition. Love all the unique brick details, have never seen this type of craftsmanship before. Registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The Kontorhaus District has some amazing architecture. Tower in construction currently in bankruptcy, City trying to work thru it.
