Contribution to Berlin Morgen. Ideen für das Herz einer Grossstadt
Berlin Zentrum
Deutsches Architekturmuseum, Frankfurt a. M., Germany
Exhibition 26 January – 24 March 1991
Four large buildings, that almost call to mind mountains, were proposed to stand on vacant or unused sites next to Berlin’s Tiergarten. The buildings were to be understood as condensed centres of their respective adjacent city quarters and, as such, received a visible urban expression. The Tiergarten would thus become a defined urban location, a central park of a future capital.
The projected buildings clearly distinguish themselves from the surrounding fabric in terms of dimension, proportion and their architectural appearance. Related conceptions on the theme of communicating building envelopes with electronic information can be found for the project for the cultural centre in Blois, for the SUVA building or in the laboratory projects for Sandoz and Flowtec.
The exhibition consisted of a video installation with four monitors playing the same tape (Video: Enrique Fontanilles) in shifted sequence.
