The DAM Preis 2025 goes to Peter Grundmann Architekten for the ZK/U Center for Art and Urbanistics in Berlin
The jury was particularly impressed by the approach of transforming a former warehouse at a freight station into an inviting meeting place: Working closely with the non-profit association KUNSTrePUBLIK e. V., the team at Peter Grundmann Architekten used an above-average amount of manual labor and a modest (and adhered to!) budget to encase the former single-story hall in a lightweight steel and glass structure and add another floor.

Contemporary Filipino Architecture is at the nexus of interconnected and intersecting forces. Once imagined as limited within the confines of the Philippines as a geographical setting, Filipino Architecture is recast as the continuous flow of people, places, and processes.
The DAM Preis 2025 goes to: AFF Architekten for the SPORE HOUSE in Berlin
The jury was especially impressed by the Spore Haus, a culture and meeting space in Berlin’s Neukölln district. It has been positioned in such a way as to create a small plaza and thus offer appreciably more quality leisure area on the otherwise rough-&-tumble Hermannstrasse.
Plan. Work. City.
The DAM for kids and young peopleThe DAM’s education program offers children, schoolchildren, and adults access to architectural topics in a playful and practical way. We want to accompany children and young people into the world of architecture, and that begins on their own doorstep. The diversity of the topic makes it possible to connect to the lifeworld of our young guests and to introduce them to building culture and design possibilities.
