Award Architekturpreis Berlin 2016

Award Architekturpreis Berlin 2016 for Joachimstrasse 11, Office Project David Chipperfield Architects Berlin: Joachimstrasse was one of the two projects awarded a commendation during the Architekturpreis Berlin awards ceremony on Friday 3 June. The jury, led by Chris Dercon, stated: ‘The project unites exemplary architecture - meticulous details, selection of materials and technical know-how - with an urban approach that connects the interior and exterior with the inner-city context. It represents an idealised form of urban life and work and an important new intimate form of public space in Berlin. The Architekturpreis Berlin is the city's main architectural award and is conferred every three years to architects and their clients for exemplary buildings, where architectural quality, creative power and technical innovation demonstrate commitment to the sustainable design of the urban living environment.
