Entrance Building of the German Museum of Technology, DE-Berlin

The German Museum of Technology, centrally located near Gleisdreieckpark in Berlin, needs a main entrance and a new look. A new, centrally located entrance structure connects the two previously separate buildings — the museum’s main building and the Spectrum. The project gives the institution a new urban presence and serves as a new public arrival and gathering place.

The new entrance building restores the volume of the administrative building, which was destroyed during the war, and the adjacent loading building, which was inherited as a ruin, and deliberately engages with the historical context.

German Embassy, IL-Tel Aviv

The residence building of the German Embassy in Tel Aviv, located in the Herzliya neighborhood, is to be rebuilt as a representative venue for the Federal Republic of Germany. An open building structure and a clear circulation plan reflect the three-story building’s commitment to transparency, exchange, and dialogue. Drawing on traditional regional construction methods, the proposed material is rammed earth.
