description: "Haus Schminke in Löbau is one of four outstanding examples of the “new building” and “international style” styles in the world. The Modernist building from 1930 was a true architectural icon in Upper Lusatia. The architect Hans Scharoun designed the building, which is now listed as a monument, for the pasta manufacturer Fritz Schminke. Extravagance and functionality meet. The curved body with terrace, the external staircase, portholes and a mighty chimney are reminiscent of a stranded ship – hence the nickname “noodle steamer. ” Flowing transitions in the living area and generous glass surfaces that harmoniously connect the exterior and interior create a unique atmosphere between space and transparency. Haus Schminke is an absolute highlight for architecture, art and design enthusiasts. With the help of audio guides or a guided tour the house can be explored. To experience the unique feeling of living for yourself, Haus Schminke offers exclusive accommodation."
