“I’m a street photographer who has traveled the world for 14 years. I cover all the major fashion weeks, always looking for the unusual. There really isn’t much difference between Christian Vierig And The style chart. I like being outside, people watching and taking pictures. So if The Styleograph didn’t exist, I’d probably be doing something similar in my spare time. Furthermore, this job offers freedom, variety, great communication and travel. Everything I look for in life”. To the question: “What is the difference between Christian Vierig and The Styleograph?”, the influencer and street portrait photographer answers like this. Because beyond his dual personality between real and digital days ( with 462 thousand followers to compare to), behind and in front of the camera lens is a man who works with the image So also from the environment he lives in – doors opened thanks to the project Home stories Of Westwing -, we expect an aesthetic cover. Here she is.
The Styleograph – actually born Christian Vierig – remains Berlin. But for some time he has chosen to live in Barcelona. And, from work to home, the creative has managed to realize his greatest daily inspiration within the walls of his home: freedom. Because living, for him, is a compromise: “Home is a place designed and furnished exactly the way I want. Since I travel a lot, I stay in many hotel or short-term rental, every place needs something: a personal touch, the right office desk, the perfect light, a cozy sofa. Because of this I really like being in my home, done up the way I want. I like to live in a minimalist way with a few high-quality objects”. If her favorite corner is the terrace, the furniture she chooses above all is the bed: “A comfortable bed is essential for me, because sleeping well is important”.
Feet and head always on the move, his house is not a chamber of wonders. We find that, contrary to all expectations, Christian Vierig collects few things. “I’m not the kind of person who gets attached to certain things,” he said. “For the last few years I’ve been living out of a suitcase and that’s why I naturally preferred to collect memories rather than things. My camera probably has the most interesting stories to tell: being outside in all weathers photographing people and more. interesting look”. However, he likes the landscape of his home Sofa Sofia: “It’s cozy, has a great design and a comfortable backrest. I like to sit there, look out or read.” Here, surrounded by a series of furniture chosen to measure creativity, art is a hobby. Passion made work.
