Tchoban Foundation - Museum for Architectural Drawing

• 
• 

The architects Sergei Tchoban and Sergey Kuznetsov created a museum for architectural drawings in Berlin that houses the internationally renowned collection of the Tchoban Foundation.

With this museum, the architect and passionate collector Sergei Tchoban realized his vision of an ideal place for architectural drawing. The Museum for Architectural Drawing at Pfefferberg thus joins the long list of important cultural institutes in the German capital. The new museum building is located at the former brewery site between Schönhauser Allee and Teutoburger Platz in Prenzlauer Berg. The museum does not only house exhibits showing exceptional architecture - its building is a masterpiece of contemporary architecture in and of itself.

Architecture of the Tchoban Foundation Museum

The striking building marks the end of a row of typical old Berlin buildings. The museum is a four-story solid-structure building with a glass penthouse and stands as a unique example of contemporary architecture, both in terms of construction and design, and not least due to the choice of materials. The expressive power of the design language is unmistakable, yet it is characterized by a sensitive approach to the site and its use. Colored concrete and glass form the building’s facades, which are designed to be rich in contrast and multi-layered. The museum building, with a floor area of approximately 490 square meters, comprises two exhibition rooms and the museum storage area in addition to the reception area.
