David Chipperfield Architects' winning proposal for an office tower in Berlin's Mitte district2

Architect ‘was unanimous choice’ in 12-strong contest

David Chipperfield Architects has won a design competition for a 70m office tower in Berlin.

The practice said it was chosen unanimously against proposals from 12 other unnamed architects for the high-rise project in the city’s central Mitte district.

The 20,000sq m tower will be built at Jannowitz Bridge, a traffic junction beside a railway line, and will form a new urban ensemble along Holzmarktstrasse, together with another office building designed by Kuehn Malvezzi.
