Craving a glimpse into a world where art, coffee, and vintage charm intertwine? This is Atelier Zeitgold. It is a concept store in Dresden’s Neustadt. Theresa Heßmann opened it on Rothenburger Straße 36. She realized a dream of combining her passions.
Atelier Zeitgold offers a unique blend. It features art, coffee, and carefully selected interior pieces. Theresa envisioned a space that feels like a “jewel box”. Here, you can find furniture from different eras. These include the German founder era, baroque, and art nouveau periods. A calming moss green color connects the rooms.
The story of Atelier Zeitgold is also the story of Theresa Heßmann. Formerly working in social work, she sought a change. A visit to the Agentur für Arbeit made her rethink her career. Within three months, she developed the concept for Atelier Zeitgold.
Theresa’s passion fuels the shop. She loves visiting flea markets and antique shops. Finding unique items excites her. At Atelier Zeitgold, she mixes modern design with vintage pieces. She combines standard IKEA with eye-catchers that have history.
Stumbling upon the space for Atelier Zeitgold felt like fate. Theresa applied for the rental without retail experience. She recalls doing a “dance of joy” upon receiving the acceptance. The name “Atelier Zeitgold” came after a long search. It reflects the time held within old furniture. It also shows Theresa’s love for gold.
Opening during a crisis presented challenges. Theresa faced delayed deliveries and disappearing business partners. Yet, waiting was not an option for her. She wanted to seize the opportunity. Some customers can even personalize furniture with suggestions.
Theresa recognizes the risks of self-employment. But her family’s support keeps her grounded. They help her navigate the highs and lows. Her family motivates her to persevere.
At Atelier Zeitgold, you can find lovingly restored interiors. These are combined with new designs from Danish brands. Local and international artists have the opportunity to exhibit artworks. The shop also offers a coffee corner. It is a perfect complement to the art and furniture.
