personal touch

Chris Glass, an inveterate traveller and arbiter of cool, has created a haven to come back to – a home in Berlin that’s brimming with his own unique style

Chris Glass has seen more than his fair share of luggage carousels, arrivals halls and hotel lobbies. Working for Soho House, global travel, luxury and adventure are second nature to him, but this also means his own Berlin apartment has an extra significance. ‘My job is about creating a home-from-home feeling for other people, which makes my own home a very personal concept,’ he says. Chris previously rented a place around the corner, but with this blank, high-ceilinged space he could do exactly as he wanted. ‘This is the first place that I have felt is really mine, that reflects me as an individual,’ he adds.
