Refurbishment Mittenwalder Strasse 44 in Kreuzberg finished 1. March 2009

After years of neglect leading to nearly irreversible decay this typical Berlin multifamily apartment building in the protected Bergmannstrasse-North district was renovated and expanded. The decades-empty units in the back and side wings were transformed into attractive apartments. The attics of the front house were fitted out as representative duplex penthouse apartments. The historic “Remise” utility building in the courtyard was revived to new life with new colors and materials and was also fitted out as a double-story unit..

Renovation measures also included all the technical installations (heating, water and electric) and the construction of 18 prefabricated balconies, which were mounted onto the facades without interference inside the still-inhabited flats in the street-side wing.

The historic lobby was returned to its former splendour by exposing the hidden stucco ceiling decorations to once again serve as the representative entree for the revitalised property .
