Allee der Kosmonauten
HOWOGE intends to establish an exemplary concept for the new construction of integrated secondary schools and grammar schools by realizing the project for the site “Allee der Kosmonauten” in the district Lichtenberg, Berlin.
The building consists of 6 building components and is designed as reinforced concrete frame construction. In the centre of the school building there is a two-storeyed sports hall. The 5 approximately identical compartment fingers are positioned around this central building. The administrative area, which approaches the height of the sports hall in several levels, is situated between components 1 and 5 in the north. The height of the sports hall approximately corresponds to the height of two compartment floors. In this way the building is shaped in four-storeyed compartment fingers and a two-storeyed central sports hall. There are big open areas on the ground floor where the building is mounted on free-standing supports. Furthermore, part of the school building has a basement, which offers space for technical and storage rooms.
Currently the building shell is being completed. By means of extensive application of reinforced concrete prefabricated and semi-finished parts the construction time could be considerably reduced.

The building is composed of 6 components and is designed as reinforced concrete frame structure. In the centre of the school complex there is a two-storeyed sports hall. 5 approximately identically constructed compartment fingers were positioned around this central building. In the north the administrative area is joined between component part 1 and 5, which approaches the height of the sports hall in various levels. The height of the sports hall floors corresponds approx. to the height of two compartment floors.
Thus, the building extends into four-storeyed compartment fingers and a two-storeyed central sports hall. On the ground floor there are big open areas where the building is mounted on free-standing supports. Furthermore, parts of the school building have a basement, which offers space for technical and storage rooms.
Thanks to the generous application of precast and semi-precast reinforced concrete elements the construction time could be considerably reduced.
The formal approval by HOWOGE as well as the handover of the school building to the district Lichtenberg took place on 10 April 2024 according to plan and so school operation at the Allee der Kosmonauten started in August 2024.
