The brief was to erect a two-pitch sports hall on the roof of an existing two-storey building in the ‘Zehlendorfer Welle’ shopping and health cente in Berlin, which blended in with the highly expressive building ensemble. The calm cube takes up the clear, modern formal language of the existing buildings, while nonetheless, given the choice of materials, being perceived ieved as an entity in its own right. When it is dark the sports hall’s translucent facade lights up the neighboring buildings in the ‘Zehlendorfer Welle’ like a lantern.
