2024/01/30
Until April 28th, the German Architecture Museum, in its temporary location in Frankfurt's Ostend, is showcasing the 26 awarded projects of the DAM Prize 2024. These were selected from a long list of 104 buildings from Germany compiled by an expert advisory board.

The Department of Architecture is extremely pleased that the Kurfürstenstraße cooperative housing project in Berlin by JUNE14 Meyergrohbrügge & Chermayeff has been selected as one of the five finalists for the DAM Prize. Johanna Meyer-Grohbrügge has been a professor of spatial design at the Department of Architecture since 2021.
The structure of the cooperative housing project consists of six towers that intersect vertically and horizontally. They each follow the two non-orthogonal street layouts and interlock with the urban space and its actors through the resulting projections and recesses. Each apartment has a very high space and optionally several lower rooms that can also be shared between the apartments. This simple principle allows for infinitely many combinations in terms of size and spatial configuration. The building aims to offer new alternatives for our coexistence and be flexible in responding to individual needs and agreements, with the architecture not prescribing sharing but only enabling it.
