Ceremonial opening of the new General Aviation Terminal at BER Airport

Already on August 30th, even one day before the originally planned date, the renewed and expanded General Aviation Terminal at BER Airport went into operation. With numerous invited guests today the ceremonial opening took place.

Planning and construction were largely carried out during ongoing operations and under increased security requirements – in close coordination with the airport company, the authorities and in tight timing with the individual trades.

By means of consistent planning and tendering as well as of our “real-time” project management, the ambitious deadlines and cost targets could have been kept. BauWerke was commissioned with the general planning and project management.

We would like to thank everyone involved – New GAT Berlin GmbH, Berlin Brandenburg Airport Company (FBB), UNDKRAUSS Bauaktiengesellschaft as general contractor, the engineering offices Brendel, Steiner, Schwarzenbacher & Partner, Rek & Wieck, the authorities involved and our entire BauWerke team – for this extremely successful collaboration.

Sailing trip with the “Royal Louise” on the Wannsee

We celebrated the end of the summer of 2023 with the BauWerke team and some guests last weekend as part of our monthly “Out of Office” on the Wannsee.

Starting at Großer Wannsee, over the following hours the captain of the “Royal Louise” and his hard-working crew of six took us to Schwanenwerder, Pfaueninsel and the frigate shed over the Havel to Jungfernsee in glorious weather. Here, some of us were even able to swim a few laps around the extraordinarily pretty, historic sailing ship, true to the motto “Pack your swimming trunks (or bikini)…”.

The “Royal Louise” is a reconstruction – true to the original – of a British miniature frigate from 1832. The original ship was a gift from the British King William IV to the Prussian King Friedrich Wilhelm III. It was named after the deceased Queen Louise, wife of Friedrich Wilhelm. The new ship was built in Berlin-Köpenick from 1996 to 1998 and sails on the Havel lakes as part of club and guest trips.

Its berth is at the “Verein Seglerhaus am Wannsee” (VSaW) in Berlin.

With cool drinks and delicious snacks, we enjoyed the picture-book sunset together on our way back.

A special experience in every respect.

Cordial thanks to the many volunteers of the non-profit “Royal Louise Yacht- und Schifffahrtsverein zu Potsdam e.V.” who are committed to ensuring that the miniature frigate can be operated and preserved as a landmark of the historic lake, castle and park landscape in Berlin and Potsdam, which is part of the UNESCO World Heritage.

Visit to the “ArchiVision” exhibition at the Tchoban Foundation in Berlin

As part of our monthly „Out of Office“ we visited the “ArchiVision” exhibition on Friday, June 30, 2023 on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the Museum of Architectural Drawing. rchitekturzeichnung besucht.

The Tchoban Foundation was founded at a time when the architectural drawing seems to be being replaced by the digital design process.

The museum was opened in June 2013 on the Pfefferberg site in Berlin Prenzlauer Berg and is presenting architectural drawings from its own holdings to mark the anniversary. Works from the collections of the Tchoban Foundation and its benefactor Sergei Tchoban, a passionate draftsman and collector of architectural drawings, review the apparently unlimited artistic possibilities of architectural representation.

The cornerstone for his collection was laid in 2001 with the acquisition of a drawing by Pietro di Gottardo Gonzaga. It now includes numerous sheets from different eras, from master drawings from the 16th century to works by contemporary architects – from Jacques Androuet du Cerceau to Hubert Robert, Sir John Soane, Karl Friedrich Schinkel, Frank Lloyd Wright to Lebbeus Woods.

The foundation’s property, on the other hand, includes drawings and visions by leading international architects of the 20th and 21st centuries, such as Aldo Rossi, Gottfried Böhm, Zaha Hadid, Frank Gehry, Alexander Brodsky, Moon Hoon and Steven Holl.

The museum presents itself as a four-storey solid building with a glass stacked floor. The conspicuous fire wall development completes a row of typical Berlin old buildings. The attached glass body protrudes about a meter; on the floors below, closed oriels alternately form projections at different angles on the street and courtyard sides. Above the deep entrance niche, a large, glazed loggia creates the only transparent opening in the concrete facade.

Colored concrete and glass make up the facades of the building, a combination that is contrasting and multi-layered in different aspects. Both the sculptural design of the concrete and its production and constructive use are remarkable and, in addition to the cubature, characterize the unusual appearance of the museum. The closed surface of the building is decorated with greatly enlarged fragments of architectural sketches in relief. The oversized line drawings refer to the use of the building as an exhibition space and archive. In many places inside the museum, the design elements of the facade recur and manifest the design code of the house; The specially designed door fittings also follow this principle.

Through a large, deeply grooved wooden door, the visitor enters the museum foyer, which attunes to the effect of architectural drawings with large-format, hand-carved wall panels and fixtures made of walnut. Cabinet rooms have been created on the first and second floors, which allow the works to be studied undisturbed and keep out the damaging daylight. A generously glazed loggia on the second floor offers the opportunity to interrupt the tour. The archive of the foundation is located on the third floor. The staggered floor, which is mostly transparent behind an all-glass double facade, provides an unobstructed view of the lively old building surroundings on Teutoburger Platz. It serves as the office and meeting room of the museum management.

The Foundation’s substantial collection serves as a basis for research into the history and nature of architectural drawing. In addition, an extensive reference library with a focus on architectural drawings offers experts and interested visitors the opportunity for research.

The stated goal of the foundation is above all to bring the fantastic and emotionally charged worlds of architectural drawings closer to a broad public in exhibitions.

Thank you for the interesting tour of this inspiring building and its diverse, historical collection. To the next ten years.

ESG optimization through effective data collection and maintenance

In order to be able to plan and carry out the sustainable renovation of real estate in a meaningful way, extensive data sets are indispensable.

If you want to reduce the CO² footprint or increase energy efficiency, you should know all the relevant properties of the property. Only in this way can opportunities and risks be adequately assessed and measures initiated safely and meaningfully.

The PSD-Bank conducted an interesting interview with our managing director, Mr. Fritz Breitenthaler, on this subject.

Watch the video below to talk about our approach to collecting and maintaining the valuable data.

A special Christmas event this year

This year we changed eating out together into giving food and spent an afternoon supporting the “Missionaries of Charity” in the kitchen for the poor in Kreuzberg in preparing and serving meals to the needy.

Four nuns of Mother Teresa have been running this charitable institution in Wrangelstraße at the church of St. Marien Liebfrauen since 1984 and are always happy about the help of volunteers – not only during the Advent season.

Detailed information is available here:

https://www.bernhard-lichtenberg.berlin/gemeinden-orte/soziale-projekte/suppenkueche-der-missionaries-of-charity

Thank you very much for the impressive insight into this important work.

We ended the day with a mulled wine at the historic Christmas market in Friedrichshain with the BauWerke team.

With this in mind, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a good start into a healthy, happy and successful New Year.
