TLW

With their design for a residential tower at Theodor-Loos-Weg in Gropiusstadt, Eike Becker_Architekten won first prize at a competition tendered by the Beamten-Wohnungs-Verein zu Berlin eG cooperative, marking the office's first cooperative project. The new building adopts the architectural language of the surrounding high-rise district erected in the 1970s and translates it into modern times. Gropius' original plans envisaged the integration of smaller buildings into the high-rise district, and EB_A's design has incorporated this idea by connecting a townhouse to the high-rise building through a shared plinth. The new tower will offer concierge services as well as designated areas for community events. A generous foyer will provide a commu... More

Moeller Fine Art Berlin

The gallery is located on the second floor of the listed Belle Epoque Palias Eger. Commissioned by the merchant brothers Carl and Paul Eger, the two-story palace was built in 1881 to designs by master builders Gustav Knoblauch and Hermann Wex as one of the most elaborate of its time. © Thomas Heimann The objective of the reconstruction was to complete and enhance the character of the Belle Epoque rooms and at the same time to find an abstract translation of opulence for the display rooms as well as for the library and to stage a flow of space from historical to modern. © Thomas Heimann In doing so, the means were to remain as invisible as possible on the one hand, and on the other hand, a new self-confident formal lang...

Apartment K

At the height of the treetops of the wooded Jewish cemetery in Prenzlauer Berg, the small penthouse apartment is located over two floors on a side wing of an old Berlin building. © Thomas Heimann The special location and the residents' desire for intimacy and openness gave rise to a spatial plan with different floor levels and a coordinated carpenter's finish whose materiality and colorfulness are three-dimensional, space-creating. Color-contrasting joints in the dark rubber flooring are continued in the joints of the butt-sanded fiberglass surfaces of the cabinets and wall panels, which resemble paper in their feel and translucency. © Thomas Heimann The lower floor houses the bedrooms, bathrooms and workrooms, and the...

floating penthouse

On the roof of an existing building in Berlin Neukölln, a small but lively and sensual world has been created in a simple style that belies its complexity – a dwelling that gives its occupants enhanced quality of life. Here the focus is on primary elements, allowing for an individual sense and experience not only of the space but also of the light, the shade, the wind, the air, the rain, the greenery, the sky, the sunrise and sunset. Werner Hutmacher The building was constructed in the early 1970s on the edge of what is known as the Bohemian Village, where a five-storey perimeter-block development dating from the boom years of the mid- to late eighteenth century abuts the one- and two-storey houses of the former village.
