A Visit to the Made Space in Berlin…

purchase on Flickr”>IMG_0758

Our last day in Berlin, and we saved the best for last.

Phil G from Soto invited us to this space after he was done blowin up a ton of balloons with highsnobiety’s Dave .

soto

A space thats is called MADE.

IMG_0752

IMG_0774

I was unsure what to expect when me and Sky arrived… and even afterwards I’m still pretty dumbfounded.

IMG_0767

IMG_0765

IMG_0759

Built from the ideas of some key creative minds in particular TADIROCK, this MADE was a space created for the sheer point of CREATING . Creating Art, Creating a message, Creating greatness.

Much like Andy Warhol’s Factory in NYC from the 60’s , this is a place that was built for artists from all around the world to come together and make dreams come true.

A better way to explain it, would be to let the People of Made do the talking –

MADE trailer from MADE Blog on Vimeo.

From their blog

MADE
an inspiring place where creative minds
from different fields come together.
a living platform where they create a vision
of something extraordinary and bring it to life.

This space has only been open for about 2 months, and Phil G and Nico Zeh gave us the grand tour .

The aesthetic and functionality of the space as described in the video above are amazing.
They actually modelled the foyer entrance after one of my fav movies of all timeStar Wars . A lot of white , boxlike modular walls…

BUT , what catches the eye 1st is the CRAZY CRAZY LIGHTING SYSTEM.

IMG_0772

IMG_0753

IMG_0773

This lighting system is patented, the 1st of its kind. THey wanted to create a lighting system where you could control the mode thru color, a lighting system where a photographer could have 24 hour daylight and shoot with no shadows, and this system is what they came up with.

You can LITERALLY CHANGE EACH light to a different color, or change sections of it, or put them on a loop, all from ONE central control. simply Amazing.

IMG_0754

Peep the video below as they let me mess around with the shine.

The space itself, is malleable. Like how Bruce Lee tells his student to “Be Like Water, so is this space.

The walls are movable, the furniture, even the bar can be moved around to suit your creative needs.

IMG_0764

IMG_0793

The 1st Art installation created and shown at this space was this snowglobe project by Sneaker connoisseur Yoske Nishiumi and photographer Alex Flach, who put their heads together to come up with this extraordinary vision.

Snowglobe Project by Alex Flach and Yoske Nishiumi @ MADE from MADE Blog on Vimeo.

A big part of this project, was that the viewer would end up becoming part of the art piece, and Myself and Sky Gellatly got to do just that.

IMG_0776

IMG_0769

The guys at MADE ended up interviewing myself and sky, picking our brains about the space, about possible ideas that I have that I would like to have come to frution.

Who knows, you guys might see an upcoming blog about the Extraordinary thing I plan to Make in Berlin….

As much fun as the party was, the experience of berlin and chillin in this historic cultural town was even better…

the underground

From the moment we got on the plane it was gonna be a good trip. My manager and I got upgraded from coach to First Class Fo FREEZY because Coach got oversold. Its like when racism works in your favor.

1st class is definitely nice… not worth it if I actually had to pay for it, but compared to coach, its another world ;)

IMG_0509

The day the block party was supposed to happen got rained out unfortunately, so we turned it into a tourist day. With our friend and fellow Hypebeast blogger Artoo, Phil G from Soto/MADE, and Thomas and Stephan, we got to see the city thru the eyes of the locals.

IMG_0583

Kerin Cycle Culture Cafe was an early stop on the West Berlin Side for some coffee…

IMG_0597

IMG_0595

A quick stop at one of the local record shops – where I of course spent money I shouldn’t …

Finally, we attempted to check out the new Damien Hirst Show at the museum, but missed it by half an hour. my fault for spending so much time at the record store :( BUT, we did get to see some other small pieces… Some dude name warhol for example ;)

IMG_0621

The night before we hit up a spot called BAR 25 by the River that is known for being an all weekend party affair. Beautiful Spot with amazin food…

IMG_0573

IMG_0575

IMG_0568

IMG_0569

At this spot, I had the most excellent Weiner Snitzel . Breaded veal I believe. Delicious. and Very German. Like Sprockets.

IMG_0561

All of this was great ;) Berlin is a beautiful town, but our last stop there was a place called
the MADE creative space, and that was the HIGHLIGHT. That my friends, will be for tomorrows blog….
