What kind of architecture does Berlin stand for? Architects take a stand. With selected projects that demonstrate the enormous diversity of today's building culture. From a repurposed asphalt square to a stylish penthouse, from a community café to an eco-living quarter, and from a cleverly revitalized listed building to a new research center. If there is one common denominator, it is this: Berlin cultivates a building culture of “we”.
Obliging was yesterday, now the focus lies on responsibility: towards each other, the environment and our cities. Insightful texts supplement the survey with trends, tasks and background information - from the integration of refugees to the plight of Germany's bridges, and from the use of water to improve the microclimate to the question: How does all that change the way architects work?
