Practical and Paced: Berlinomat

Located in an East German apartment block on the subversively un-hip central section of Berlin’s Frankfurter Allee, Berlinomat is a showroom store for Berlin-based designers.

Owners Theresa Meirer and Jörg Wichmann aim to bring Berlin designers from different fields under one roof as a platform for local design and to give young and up-and-coming labels a chance to be stocked.

Berlinomat stocks over 400 items from a variety of categories such as fashion, accessories  and homeware – all by Berlin designers. The actual shop also includes a small café which serves home-made pastries and fruit juice.

Those unable to go to Berlin can easily shop online. Here at j&o we love this reflective elastic band, perfect to avoid getting your trousers caught in the bike chain.

Also high on our wish list is this salt and pepper set, handmade from local trees as well as this very cool street scene print by Berlin artist Robert Stumpf.
