SHOPPING OLAF BORKERS Member of the Executive Board, Deutsche EuroShop “Buy local!” they say, and I've again been happy to do so. I bought myself a cyclocross bike in fire brigade red from the Hamburg firm of Stevens and I'm going to use it for outings into the villages in the woods around the city. It's “Made in Germany – German Handicraft.” RALF BÖNNEMANN Director, Shoppingcenter Leasing Germany, CBRE GmbH For spring I bought myself a sky- blue Vespa motor scooter. Not only is it the ideal way to enjoy good weather, but it's also really practical in the city center! BIRGIT SCHÄFER Secretary to the Executive Board, Deutsche EuroShop I bought two elegant candle- holders, each standing 1.50 metres high, for my living room. They're hand-made, with a finely hammered effect and look impressive – real attention-grabbers! JOANNA FISHER Managing Director, ECE Center Management I didn't buy anything I'd really set my heart on in 2015. Actually, I just really do enjoy shopping generally, especially for clothes and shoes, so I regularly go off on an easy-going shopping trip with friends. What i bought in 2015 PATRICK KISS Head of Investor&Public Relations, Deutsche EuroShop My “buy of the year” certainly wouldn't be to everyone's taste, but I do like the coffin lid painted by the Belgian artist Hannes d'Haese with the words, “Nothing lasts forever, so live it up, drink it down, laugh it off, avoid the bullshit, take the chances and never have any regrets.” The courier who delivered this work of art wasn't terribly amused. WILHELM WELLNER Member of the Executive Board, Deutsche EuroShop Art delights the senses. Since last year, we've had an example of art photography by Christophe Jacrot in our home. It's an evocative, moody and rather melancholy street scene from Paris in soft colours. with a finely hammered effect and look impressive – real attention-grabbers! 38 Deutsche EuroShop AG Annual Report 2015
