A residential and commercial structure completed in 1928 in Herne's city center, this building exemplifies Expressionist architecture of the Weimar era. Occupying the corner of Bebelstraße and Neustraße, it merges functional urban housing with commercial space in a style that emphasized bold geometric forms and dramatic aesthetic innovation. The building is protected as an architectural heritage monument in North Rhine-Westphalia, reflecting its significance as a period example of early twentieth-century German modernism.
