Memorial Church

Flanked by the two high-rise buildings with Office and serviced apartments, BIKINI BERLIN offers a special mixture of shopping, dining, and lifestyle. Vertical and horizontal connection axes can be merge the components. The penthouses on the roof crowned the building. The four glass cubes are multifunctional rooms, conceivably for gastronomy, representative showrooms or unusual offices. The complex of buildings at the Budapester Strasse is firmly anchored in the collective consciousness of just the Berlin. Created in the 1950s, is the ensemble its now a milestone in the revival of the City West.

Not only in urban planning terms. The introduction in today can be literally come out of the shadow of the Memorial Church BIKINI BERLIN. The buildings at the Budapester Strasse the Bikinihaus owes its name of the dichotomy of the floors are significant milestones for the period. “Designgenie Dieter Rams Mr. Brown” manifests itself as a witness: we were after the turmoil of the terrible war in the awakening and wanted to not only build but also change. “Good design has what to do clean up.” But how to built a new city? Not from the drawing board, but with singular, individual, urban planning meaningful highlights. Paul Schwebes and Hans Schoszberger have created a clean, transparent ensemble. A centre which was a milestone for the creative awakening of the Federal Republic and for economic recovery.

Designers, tailors, coordinators and other creative people from the textile sector settled here. For the renewed lust for life. In a city that wanted to be metropolis and was island. Paul Schwebes and Hans Schoszberger expressed this through a high degree of transparency in the facade design. With floor to ceiling They have created a building Windows in the ground floor and the portico, which did not rule the people, but have left. The architects approached the project with the proposed sensitivity. Thus in 1955 more than a pure commercial building was born.
