Always on the lookout for fancy and obscure gadgets all over the world, Christina drags her finds back to the store – mostly “need-not” but “must-have” stuff. Some of the products are available in vast quantities, others are one-offs. Avant-garde design sits alongside recycled products; small series of goodies alternate with industrial mass-produced goods; and digital sounds compete with photographic originals and printed rarities from flea markets or illustrious auction houses.

In addition to the goodies, the shop’s architecture and design catches the visitor’s eye, reflecting the different facets of Lomography. Unusual materials, flowing elements and mobile structures respond to the location’s philosophy and the range and change of the products on offer.

In the shop’s vestibule, which runs off into the entrance of the Kunsthalle, Christina hosts spontaneous and well-planned LomoParties. “There is always a reason for feasting,” says the shop-owner, who especially loves it when foreign visitors suddenly realise that it is the Lomography World they have entered.
