Unité d'Habitation of Berlin
Unité d'Habitation of Berlin, Residential high-rise in Westend, Germany
The Unité d'Habitation stands 53 meters tall with a length of 141 meters, featuring a facade made of exposed concrete and modular design elements.
Le Corbusier completed this residential complex in 1958 as part of the International Building Exhibition, addressing the severe housing shortage in post-war Berlin.
The building exemplifies brutalist architecture through its raw concrete construction, geometric patterns, and integration of communal spaces for residential interaction.
The structure contains 530 apartments ranging from one to five rooms, complemented by ground-floor facilities including shops and communal gathering areas.
The residential complex transformed into condominiums in 1979, enabling residents to purchase their units and establish a permanent community within the modernist structure.
