A HOUSE FOR LOUIS SULLIVAN

In the postmodern maze of architectural exploration, the tale of Louis Sullivan, the visionary architect, takes an unexpected turn—towards the unconventional streets of East Berlin, where the echoes of dissidence and artistic fervor collide. As a leading figure in the architectural revolution, Sullivan's spirit seeks a new dwelling, transcending the boundaries of time.

Amidst the historic upheaval of East Berlin, where vacant apartments in Prenzlauer Berg whisper stories of defiance and artistic synergy, Sullivan's gaze falls upon Duncker Strasse—an emblem of resistance and creativity. The quarter, playfully dubbed the LSD quarter, pulsates with a vibrant mix of artists, activists, and free spirits, each contributing to the dissident ambiance that defines the streets.

The LSD quarter, adorned with a proto-typical utopian aesthetic, becomes a canvas for Sullivan's architectural soul. Drawn to the unconventional allure of the area, he envisions Duncker Strasse as a haven for forgotten architecture to speak, a testament to the enduring power of ornamentation that he championed throughout his career.

In this unexpected odyssey, Sullivan discovers not only a physical space but a living testament to the enduring impact of his work. The spirit of East Berlin, with its vibrant community and dissident energy, resonates with Sullivan's belief that architecture should express, not hide, the underlying structure—a sentiment that found its voice amidst the diverse inhabitants of Duncker Strasse.

As he immerses himself in the experience of a lifetime, Sullivan witnesses the benefits of his architectural philosophy thriving in unexpected corners of the world. The encounter with the unconventional spirit of East Berlin becomes a chapter in Sullivan's architectural legacy—a legacy that transcends the ordinary and finds resonance in the uncharted streets of a city pulsating with the beats of artistic rebellion.

These are the drawings I unearthed from over 30 years ago, when I was discovering the perfection of proportion embedded in the discarded architecture, that became the home for many artists and friends of mine; a space for experimentation; learning to expand the horizon of architecture.
