Coe48 Office and Apartment Building / Tchoban Voss Architekten

Koepenicker Strasse is, in terms of architectural history, an important artery between Berlin-Mitte and Kreuzberg. Here rough-and-tumble Berlin can still be experienced today in all its richness of contrast – from turn-of-the-century industrial buildings to the practical functionality of post-war architecture. Here brickwork meets plaster, and metal meets concrete. Coe48 Berlin stands on the corner of Koepenicker Strasse and Wilhelmine-Gemberg-Weg at Koepenicker Strasse 48, directly opposite the Mediaspree business centre. With its emphatic relief and sculptural interplay of bay windows, green terraces, and large window openings the façade strikes a new note amidst the historical ensemble of buildings on this spot while continuing the diverse architectural heritage. The seven-storey building nonchalantly blends into this lively, creative neighbourhood, offering a modern place in which to live or work in the heart of the city.
