The innocuous Moritzplatz roundabout was always a no man’s land, but there have been a fair few high-profile shops opening around there, including a high-end kitchen appliance shop, a banh-mi café and the Prince Charles nightclub. One of the first, though, was Modulor, a paradise for the crafty, with absolutely anything and everything an artist or designer might need. Over a number of floors, everything is logically laid out – rolls of bizarre synthetic materials stacked up for use by product designers or experimental fashion students, but also more traditional art supplies: row after row of coloured pencils, markers, chalks, charcoals, oils and acrylics. They also offer services like cutting, laser etching and rental of tools. It’s also a great place to come for decorative ideas for the more DIY-minded, as they sell shaped objects, metallic papers, printed wallpapers and plastic models which can be used around the house.
