Berlin is a city with a rich underground movement. Unexpected locations, often in seemingly abandoned buildings, reveal a hidden culture of bars, clubs, restaurants, art galleries and pop-ups that lean towards experimental, multi-use venues.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Temporary also means only well-informed tourists find themselves here—something locals put more and more value on with a booming tourism industry that in 2012 surpassed 24.9 million overnight stays, making Berlin the third most visited city in Europe (beating out Rome) after London and Paris.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
In July 2012, Platoon Kunsthalle Berlin<\/a> opened in Berlin’s Mitte District as an experimental space for artists and creatives. Designed by communication consultancy Platoon in collaboration with Graft Gesellschaft Von Architekten<\/a>, the modular building will remain open until 2014, and consists of 34 stacked standard freight containers that serve as a venue for art projects, workshops, and events.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Temporary spaces also include Base Camp by Nest One,<\/a> which combines retail space, café, jobs, training room and event venue. Lil Schlichting-Stegemann’s pop-up retail store, Lil Shop<\/a>, offered second season collections by Comme des Garçons and Junya Watanabe from a whimsical interior that, before it closed in December 12, included rearing horses and chandeliers printed on the walls. A new location is expected to be unveiled early this year.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Untraditional tourists looking for a place to lay their heads will enjoy Hüttenpalast<\/a>, an indor camping facility hidden away in a former factory. Sarah Vollmer and Silke Lorenzen designed the space to provide all the benefits of camping without the inconvenience of the outdoors.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Memo From Berlin: New Builds<\/a><\/p>\n Memo From Berlin: Insider’s Take<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In July 2012, <\/span>Platoon Kunsthalle Berlin<\/a> opened in Berlin’s Mitte District as an experimental space for artists and creatives.
