VENUE 2010 - BIKINI HOUSE BERLIN
BIKINI BERLIN
As part of the “Zentrum am Zoo” the Bikini House was built between 1955-57 by the architects Paul Schwebes and Hans Schoszberger. The name “Bikini” derives from its original structure: an office part at the top, a shopping part at the bottom and an “air-floor” stabilised through massive pillars in between.
BIKINI BERLN will be an innovative multiuse commercial center at the heart of Berlin’s western city that will open doors in 2012.
It is designed as an urban oasis, a unique place that serves the needs and interests of the people, a place that connects the city with the greens of the park, an urban hub that allows for personal and creative exchange. BIKINI BERLIN is an architectural necklace along the southside of the Tiergarten, built in the 1950s, that will provide a shopping hall, a premium hotel, offices, cinemas and wellness space. One of the most unique attractions of BIKINI BERLIN will be the BIKINI PARK, a spacious rooftop garden towards the Zoological Garden, open for everyone. Owner of BIKINI BERLIN is the Bayerische Bau und Immobilien GmbH & Co. KG.
