Minimum space – maximum lighting

The saw is roaring in his ears. Standing on the ladder, he guides the thin saw blade along the pencil line. Only a few centimetres separate him from success. Done – a small piece of plasterboard becomes a victim of gravity and falls to the ground. Daniel puts his fingers into the borehole and fiddles the thin cable out of the opening. Just plug it in and you're done. Easier than expected – he smiles relaxed. This project had cost him many sleepless nights. Now he looks at his work with satisfaction.

Out of the old nursery and into a new world. Away from the parents' house, towards the first, own apartment. That's exactly what I'd dreamed of for a long time! How would I arrange the rooms? For years I had imagined what my own four walls would look like.
Now for the first time I hold my keys in my hand and have a grin like a Cheshire cat on my face. The most important pieces of furniture have already found their place – now only the right lighting is missing.

A delicate hint of rosé on the cheeks, perfect contours and a breath-taking look. I didn't see all this when I looked at myself in the mirror of the elevator. With the feeling of being at the mercy I took the few steps to our open-plan office. There the partly questioning, partly unbelieving looks stabbed me in the back. I began to think: "Is that really necessary?"

We have summarised for you here exactly how this departure looks like and who shines as a new star in the lamp sky.
