IN A HISTORIC SPOT THAT ONCE DIVIDED A CITY, BJARKE INGEL’S GROUP PROPOSES A BUILDING TO BRING PEOPLE TOGETHER.
European media giant Axel Springer has just announced the three finalists bidding to design its new media campus in Berlin. This is what the new space would look like if the proposal from Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) were to win.
The building is to be constructed on one of the last remaining plots in what used to be the no man’s land between East and West Berlin, where the Berlin Wall once stood. It will need to house double the employees on half the space of Axel Springer’s existing headquarters, which is currently next door to the site.
