KUNSTFABRIK is at the very edge of former East Berlin. Back then, it also served as part of the wall. The creators here are a mixed bag from Asian countries including Japan and China, America, and various European countries. The rent is 5-6 Euros (800-900 yen) per 1 square meter, including energy bills. If there's a space available, I'd definitely recommend it.

Joel, in charge of publicity, takes us around in the video. Please enjoy the miniature tour of the atelier.

Berlin is filled with a friendly atmosphere that seems to welcome anyone and everyone. The design show, DESIGNMAI, is scheduled to be held this May, at KUNSTFABRIK. Please have a look if you're close to the venue.

Last is a typically "Berlin" space. I remember that the air was crisp and cold inside, even though it was mid-afternoon in early September. The first ever checkout was March 1986, and the next was March 1991. The Berlin Wall fell on 9th November 1989.

Mr. Kuwakubo talked about the context that arises from reusing old buildings.

The project leader Svenja talks about the "Letzte Uberprufung" ("Last Lookout") project, in which places and history intertwine.
