WOHNHOCHAUS HOLZHYBRID BERLIN 2021 – A 100-metre-high apartment tower, a vertical residential neighbourhood, represents a pioneering prototype of modern urban development, both in its programme and construction methods.
The functionality and seriality of Berlin’s apartment buildings are being transferred to the new residential high-rise, a hybrid timber construction. The high demands upon the project require constructive pragmatism to ensure enduring economic and social strength.
The location—at an opening in the urban fabric caused by history, freestanding in the metropolitan landscape between Mendelssohn-Bartholdy-Park and the park at Anhalter Bahnhof—is unparalleled.
