Shell Haus

The "Shell-Haus", located at Berlin-Tiergarten.

 

This masterpiece of architect Emil Fahrenkamp was built 1930-32!

The simple graceful forms are stylistically reminiscent of the German modern realist movement "New Objectivity". The main facade jumps forward in six gentle waves, whilst at the same time increasing in height from six levels to ten.
