Dietrich & Dietrich Max-Plank-Institutfur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, Berlin: Opus 74

The Max-Planck-Gesellschaft commissioned a new building in these surroundings in order to provide the Institute for the History of Science, dating from 1994, with accommodation appropriate to its needs. The building was erected in 2004/5 to a competition design by the Stuttgart architects Marion Dietrich-Schake, Hans- Jurgen Dietrich and Thomas Tafel (who left the team after drawing up the planning application).
