TXL – Berlin Tegel Airport

“Every building should have a clear face that reflects its character. If it doesn’t have a distinctive face, it’s not a good building.” A film portrait of Berlin’s legendary hexagon-shaped airport. The fascinating story of a building that emerged from a public architectural competition won by two aspiring architects. They succeeded in something unprecedented at the time, creating a concept that was not outdated when it was completed, but instead inspired others.
