Mad Arkitekter and Mud Landscape Architects, have won the international competition to design a vertical city quarter in Kreuzberg, Berlin. Selected from 14 submissions of well-known European architecture firms taking part in the contest, the proposal re-interprets the district in a vertical configuration. Set to be 98 meters high, with 29 floors, the Woho project will become Germany s tallest three-hybrid construction, once completed.
Centered on climate and social sustainability, the Woho project is a high-rise building with a diverse program and a distinct social profile. Designed as a small district in itself, the building is located in Kreuzberg, a central, diverse, and unconventional district in the German capital. Reflecting these spatial qualities, Mad Arkitekter designed a proposal that re-interprets the typical Kreuzberg quarter, in a vertical configuration. Selected out of 14 offices, Mad Arkitekter impressed the jury with its design that fits into the urban context
