With his series on vacated headquarters, Berlin-based photographer Andreas Gehrke takes a dispassionate look at dormant buissness premises, including a tower block built for Hamburg news magazine Der Spiegel, the old IBM Germany offices in Vaihingen, Stuttgart and the HQ of now defunct mail order firm Quelle in Nuremberg.
Formerly home to business enterprises that played a significant role in shaping the economic, cultural and political landscape of postwar Germany, these buildings are also notable examples of German modernist architecture designed by Ernst Neufert, Egon Eiermann and Werner Kallmorgen.
