“Raimund Abraham House”, Friedrichstrasse 32/33, Berlin, Germany [1985-1987] _ Architect: Raimund Abraham _ Photos by Spyros Kaprinis [27.01.2023].

“The front facade has balconies oriented to the southern building line, while the rear facade plane takes views to the northern administrative building. The building is centered on a vertical incision, where the entrance is located. The window strip of this vertical incision is behind the main facade and is emphasized by the steel structure in front of it. Originally it was planned to be open here to enable a free passage to the circular inner courtyard. The cantilevered balconies on the 1st floor at the roadside, visually repeats the constant width of the vertical incision. The design and significance of the balconies above it is described in the specification for the building permit documents as follows "These balconies are held by diagonal tension beams ... and thereby increase the tension between the divided halves of the facade." The rear facade forms a semicircle, and thus creates a protected residential area. To accommodate the integration of living and working, flexible commercial spaces are situated on the ground and first floors, while the 4 levels above are designated for living. In total, approximately 586 square meters of shops, restaurants, clinics or offices and twenty three rooms into apartments (social housing), each with about 80 sqm. The seven-storey residential and commercial building with underground garage was built of solid construction (masonry and concrete) and externally insulated and plastered (mineral plaster). The site required pile foundations.”
