gmp von Gerkan, Marg and Partners Architects’ Post

From 1980 until 1998 the Tempodrom as an unconventional cultural institution provided space for 3,500 people in two big tops. The nowadays outstanding structural feature is the 37 m high tent-like roof construction made from concrete above the Large Arena, with daylight entering through the glazed opening in its zenith. The symbolic roof form is a constructive interpretation of the phenomenon, which has characterized the identity of the Tempodrom in the past – the experience of the tent atmosphere. In the Liquidrom natural materials are used primarily. The floors and walls in the wet and bathing areas are clad with a greenish-grey natural stone; the walls of all other rooms are finished with refined fair-faced concrete. The wall cladding is made from untreated red cedar; the ceilings are suspended and dark coated. © Photos: Marcus Bredt © Model Photos: Heiner Leiska © Drawings: gmp Architekten #gmp #gmparchitects #gmpnews #Tempodrom #Liquidrom #Berlin #Culture #Architectur
