Berlin’s futuristic wooden school opens after record 13-month build
Berlin’s newest school, the 14th School in Mahlsdorf, has officially opened its doors. The facility offers 625 places for students from first to tenth grade and marks a significant step in modern school construction. Built using innovative serial wooden modular techniques, the project was completed in just 13 months.
The school is part of Berlin’s HOCOMP program, a pilot initiative aimed at improving future school designs. Lessons from this project will shape upcoming constructions across the city. The building follows Berlin’s compartment system, which promotes collaborative learning among students.
The 14th School in Mahlsdorf now serves 625 students with a design focused on teamwork and efficiency. Its rapid 13-month construction sets a benchmark for future projects under the HOCOMP program. The next phase will see another school completed by 2028, continuing Berlin’s push for innovative education facilities.
