Stone & steel in the 14th century

A place filled with music. In the middle of Vienna's 14th district, Jürgen lives here. Sometimes alone, then again as a couple. And his son also finds a home here. A life in many acts and variations. And they all take place in Keep's black kitchen. Made of black steel and slate. 

Free-spirited

Some people create their lives exactly the way they want them to be. Jürgen (44) is one of them. A vision between freedom, independence and constantly reinventing himself. An "extreme free spirit" who finds his sporting fulfillment in mountain biking, mountaineering and skiing, and his professional fulfillment in the border area between sports and media. His center of life? A black steel kitchen of Keep made of raw pipes, sheathed in black slate stone.

"I don't like things with a built-in character. Keep is free - so am I."

Slate & steel

The kitchen is on the lower floor of a two-story apartment in Vienna's 14th district. The record player is spinning, music sounds from the speakers. Sohn-live, the Strokes, sometimes Mumford and Sons. The coffee machine is always on. No matter how late it is. It smells. 

Life takes place around the kitchen island made of natural stone. Sometimes alone, then again with the partner and the son. There is cooking for everyone in the room, chatting, drinking a good glass of red wine. There is also a dining table and chairs. But people only sit there in exceptional cases.

Materiality

The composition of the modular kitchen were chosen quite deliberately. Chance is rarely a master builder in Jürgen's life. His love for materials and their natural, genuine properties and flaws is too great for that. The frame of untreated and visible black steel, the porto slate, the dark colors - everything exactly as he imagined. 

"I like when something is not artificial, not perfect, and you can not only see the materials, but also feel them in their originality."

Space without end

In the tall cabinet is almost all the appliances, in addition, like the wall module, it provides storage space. The espresso machine, one of the most important pieces of the apartment, also finds its place here. The use of feet, on which all three kitchen modules stand, maintains the lightness of the room. 

Common values

One could speak of love at first sight. After the impulse purchase of the apartment, Jürgen had little time to plan the kitchen. 

Nevertheless, he had precise ideas, which were implemented at Keep. But not only the outer, but also the inner values are right in this relationship.

The attention to detail, aesthetics and good, functional design and the sustainable thought that makes Keep what we are - all values that Jürgen shares with us.

"Especially as a father, you do worry about leaving this world a better place. And with my modular kitchen from Keep, I know I'm doing everything right, at least in that area."
