JOH 3 by J. Mayer H. Architects

I recently wrote a post about J. Mayer H. Architects’ recent work in Georgia (here). The Berlin-based practice have now realised a residential building in their hometown, situated between Museum Island and Friedrichstrasse. The most striking feature of the building is the sculptural design of the suspended slat facade that envelops the glass; the pattern mimicking the natural shapes of the green interior courtyard within. This is something that has become something of a trademark for the architects. The quirky pattern in this building is even extended to the tiling of the bathrooms.
