THE POOLHOUSE
A Sixties Fashion Story. Almost.
THIS COULD HAVE COME STRAIGHT OUT OF A SIXTIES FASHION STORY.
IF THE PORSCHE HADN’T ARRIVED A FEW DECADES LATE.
Haus Kemper, Wuppertal. Richard Neutra. Glass, horizontals, a pool.
Architecture so effortlessly elegant that, for a moment, even Wuppertal starts looking suspiciously like Palm Springs.
And then there is the 935.
Brand-new. Wide. Radical. White.
Calling it “fast” would describe it about as completely as calling a dinner jacket “black”.
Today, one of these sits somewhere around the 1.5-million-euro mark.
Doesn’t help the line.
That was already good.
THE POOLHOUSE lives in this strange shift of time: Neutra’s modernism on one side, a Porsche from another era on the other — and in the photograph, both behave as if they had arranged to meet.
No showroom.
No racetrack.
More like a rather exclusive casting.
Haus Kemper provides the set.
The 935 gets the part.
And remarkably, nobody has to move.

Every ATELI’R frame is individually crafted. Its grain, surface and natural character cannot be repeated.
Nature didn't see the need for more.
