Baking for all to see

Glockenbrot, Mönchengladbach

With an open-view bakery is how Glockbäcker scores at a REWE market in Mönchengladbach. In spite of the relatively transparent size of a good 100 m² including the café section, the skilful layout creates plenty of space for staff and an excellent platform for the main man to demonstrate his artisan skills. With a pleasantly discreet nostalgia design Berner takes up the trend towards more homeliness – and transports it to a place where it is least expected: a supermarket's checkout zone!
