In 1994, I worked at Architectuurstudio Herman Hertzberger (AHH), Amsterdam, Netherlands, on this social housing project for Berlin, Germany. Sited on a peninsula in the Spree River, it forms part of a larger master-plan also designed by AHH. This project was already in its design development phase when I joined the team, and my main task was to work out the dwelling units so that they would conform with German social housing regulations. I also worked on the landscape concept, contributing a wheelchair-accessible “stramp,” and on sections and elevations. The building was completed in 1997.
