Image title
Shellhaus, Tiergarten to Berlin (Germany). Before he could build this office building, which had the revolutionary look of the period, the architect Emil Fahrenkamp had to review his plans almost three hundred times before the town planning commission gave its approval in 1930. In 1931, Shell House was inaugurated. Its undulating facade in decrochees was born thanks to the use of a metal frame, a first in Berlin. The dynamic wing, visible to the Landwehrkanus, has a height of five levels in its lower part, gradually reaching ten. Damaged during World War II, the Shell House underwent successive restoration work, respecting its historical aspect and the original interior fittings. In 1965-1968, two towers designed by Paul Baumgarten were added to him on his North wing. The final work took place from 1997 to 1999, and enabled the Berlin gas company, GASAG, to set up its headquarters there.
