Integrative building project at former flower wholesale market

The three-dimensional ceramic elements of the Craft series specially manufactured for the ETICS facade give the building an unmistakably plastic appearance which subtly underlines all these special features without pushing itself into the foreground. The main objective of the concept-bound award procedure applied here was a high degree of diversity and good mixing of the resident and utilization structure. Accordingly, the new building has not only cooperative residential, studio and communal areas, but also privately owned studios and apartments, commercial areas as well as rooms offered by the Protestant Association of the Deaf in Berlin. In addition, there is an internal cross-subsidization within the project which - by means of a higher price per square metre for the owners - ensures that the rents for the cooperative members remain comparatively low at 9.50 euros/m².
