“In the center, between the former Berlin Wall and Checkpoint Charlie, the final urban component of this central district emerges: a new Federal Ministry combined with a residential complex comprising 111 units.”
“Both buildings feature the typical green inner courtyards found in Berlin. The apartments are oriented towards a communal garden through the covered walkways. Thanks to the courtyards the office spaces in the ministry benefit from ample daylight.”
“In classic Berlin style, the design brings together two blocks back to back, creating spatial and security separation between the buildings.”
“The architecture prioritizes sustainability and deconstruction. The ministry is designed as a timber frame structure with wood-concrete composite floors. The residential complex will be implemented using timber modular construction. The modules are prefabricated and delivered ready for assembly on-site.”
“The two structures consciously avoid sealing themselves hermetically from the surroundings. In the ministry's ground floor, there is insight into a library. Through green spaces and various pathways, the new block seamlessly integrates into the neighborhood.”
“Each of the two buildings has its own identity, yet both belong to a family through their ceramic facades.”
“What a historically significant location right in the heart of Berlin! May our construction be a contribution to a democratic and livable future in this beautiful city.”
