Location

The building stands on the western side of Gdańska Street, between Chocimska street and Świętojańska street.

It stands close to remarkable tenements in the same street:

History

The house was built in 1912-1913,[1] on a design by Bydgoszcz's architect Paul Sellner. At the time, the address was "Danzigerstrasse 54, Bromberg.[2]

In 1914, Robert Schulz set up a restaurant on the ground floor[3] that operated until 1920.

Architecture

Tenement presents an early modernist style.[4]

The three-storey avant-corps are decorated with laurel wreaths and stylized vases and flowers low-reliefs. A dissymetry is created by balconies on the right side and logias on the opposite side.[4] Inside, the building has got a preserved elevator with a wrought metal door.

Paul Sellner, the architect, has been a student of architect Karl Bergner. In 1904, he opened his own architectural study office in Bromberg, where he stayed at least until 1922.[4] In Bydgoszcz Paul Sellner designed also another habitation house at Świętojańska Street 2, (intersection with Gdańska Street) in 1911-1912.

gollark: Not an "OS".

gollark: I was talking Opus; I guess MBS somewhat counts but it isn't branded as an OS.
