Wunderkammer

A world shaped by time and memory —
open to a few.

Discover
The House
"Nothing was placed.
Everything was chosen."

A Private World,
Shaped Over Time

Living Wunderkammer is not a conventional place. It is a private residence shaped over decades through passion, research and an unrelenting curiosity for the world.

Set within a former cinema in an Art Déco building in the heart of Basel, the residence unfolds across carefully composed spaces, anchored by a dramatic double-height salon illuminated by a large skylight.

Each room reveals a different facet of the same story. Objects, artworks and furnishings gathered across Europe and Asia coexist without hierarchy — not as a curated exhibition, but as a natural accumulation shaped over time. The house belongs to Andreas Häner, a collector who continues to live here.
