Atelier Fanelsa
is an international team of architects based in Berlin and Gerswalde. The studio investigates contemporary forms of working, living and commoning in the countryside, the periphery, and the city. We realise private projects, public buildings, exhibitions, and workshops. Within these formats we develop innovative and qualitative answers to questions and conditions of today’s society.
