Since november 2007 the Hungarian culture institute Collegium Hungaricum Berlin (CHB) has its home at Dorotheenstraße 12, behind the Humboldt University, with a view on the boulevard “Unter den Linden”. A location in the middle of the historic centre of Berlin, right next to the “Museum Island”. This modern building in a neo-Bauhaus style, designed by Peter P. plays with its façade with “laminarity” and contrast. It includes a 40 m² large panorama window with a rear projection. The ground floor room behind the 15 m² large front window communicates with the public space as well.

The office building is located at Rosenthaler Straße 30, in the heart of the vibrant tourist centre of central Berlin.

Nightscreen – Gasometer
keep reading
Torgauer Str. 1, 10829 Berlin, Germany

The Nightscreen-Gasometer is located in the south of Berlin. With an expanse of 660m² it is Europe’s biggest LED media facade. The LED net is attached to two top rings of the steel frame in an altitude of 80m, visible far beyond the Schöneberg district at nighttime. The orientation of the screen, operated by Megaposter, mainly is directed towards the city motorway interchange connected to the new regional and intercity railway station Berlin Südkreuz of the Berlin Circle Line (Ringbahn).

The listed Gasometer building is located in the Südkreuz area of the development programme “Urban Redevelopment Project West”, financed by the Federal and State governments. The steel construction can be seen from far away and is the landmark and striking symbol of the Schöneberg district. It is located in the former industrial estate of the Gasag among various railway tracks in the Rote Insel (Red Island) neighbourhood. The plan is to transform the Gasag-estate into a “European Energy Forum” with shops and office buildings, hotels, restaurants, a private university and a park.
