Following a €100,000 (£98,000) refit by Berlin-based concept artist Miriam Kilali this shelter which nows features Italian wallpaper, gold trimmings, parquet flooring, red carpeting and crystal chandeliers
has been dubbed the swankiest homeless shelter in the world.

wow what a concept.
i'm sure that 100k could have been better spent elsewhere to help those in need, rather than developing an overused space into a work of "art"
i agree. he could have used regular materials and made more shelters. That would have been a bit more helpful. And wat about the actual accomodations? Are they sleeping on four poster beds with sateen sheets too? There's probably alot of competition to get into there.
