WOHNEN AN DER BARNIMKANTE

New construction of a residential and commercial building

In a former vacant lot on Teutoburger Platz in Berlin Prenzlauer Berg, the seven-storey residential and commercial building was built as a low-energy KfW 40 energy-saving house.

The building is a timber hybrid construction: While the load-bearing parts are made of steel and reinforced concrete, the façade construction is made of timber panels.

The column-free interior allows very flexible, individual floor plans. Different apartment sizes allow for multi-generational living. The timber façade cladding, the spacious balconies and terraces facing the sunny courtyard and the large communal courtyard create the highest quality of life in the middle of an urban space.

This project was awarded the “Berliner Holzbaupreis 2019“.
