A Kaleidoscopic Symphony

Project locationKreuzberg, Berlin, Germany
University/SchoolUniversity of Dundee
Lead ArchitectDylan Baliski
Design TeamDylan Baliski

AKS expresses the German, and Turkish cultures of the multicultural Kreuzberg as two distinct strata: the convention, and the abstraction. The convention houses the solid elements stemming from the urban block: the studios, multi-function rooms, and back-of-house spaces. The abstraction houses the interstitial foyer, sloping above the private plinth and into the kaleidoscope; the intersection of the two forms housing the kaleidoscopic auditorium. The flexible theatre will promote community within the intersecting confines of the building, creating a kaleidoscopic symphony of culture and music.
