in the middle of something

We believe that the spaces we live in shape the way we feel.
They should bring ease, fun, joy and a sense of safety, belonging and love everyday life.

in the middle of something is a Berlin-based interior design studio founded by Anna Wolff and Jan Tiemann. We create interiors, custom furniture and and unique room concepts.

Jan's background in carpentry and furniture design brings a deep understanding of wood, materials and construction. Anna's background in fine arts brings a focus on colour, atmosphere and spatial composition.

Together we create fun, feel-good, individual spaces that bring joy and ease to everyday life.
We work together in close collaboration. As a duo we provide you with the full service of designing and planning your project to the smallest detail and overseeing the construction until its final realisation.

We develop each project around the people who will use it, the existing space and the available budget.
Whether it's a concept for a whole appartment, a single custom-made piece of furniture or a the interior of one room, our aim is always to create spaces that feel easy, lift the mood and give a sense of calmness and safety at the same time.
We believe that spaces, such an home, can adapt over time. One aspect of sustainability is that your space can respond to changing needs – as families grow or ways of living evolve.
Whether you're planning a complete renovation, looking for a single custom-made piece of furniture or simply trying to make a small apartment work better, we'd love to hear from you.
You don't need to have everything figured out before getting in touch — sometimes a conversation is the best place to start.


We work closely with our clients.  We get to know you and you get to know us, so our project can develop on a fundament of common trust.
We want to really understand your ideas, wishes, needs and dreams. We bring all of our imagination, creativity, passion, knowledge and experience to the table and do everything to make them come true.


Our furniture is built by hand – with precision, passion, patience, love and appreciation of the material.
