The Space
re:future lab is nestled in SPREEHALLE, site of the re:future lab, on the grounds of former AEG transformer factory. The halls are located in a vast industrial building complex on the banks of the Spree, in the district Berlin-Schöneweide, designated as one of Berlin’s „Zukunftsorte“.
The SPREEHALLE building complex was renovated by London-based architectural bureau FeildenCleggBradleyStudios, receiving in 2018 the Otto Borst Prize for Urban Renewal and nominated for the BDA Architecture Audience Award.
The premises have become a vibrant creative hub, housing artists' studios, exhibition spaces, and creative agencies. Besides being an attractive location for academia, business, and technology, the area Schöneweide-Adlershof combines the groundbreaking and new with the old and established when it comes to entrepreneurial spirit and urban planning and architecture—which makes it a most fitting location for HOLITOPIA.
In 2020, Madeleine Schwinge acquired a 160 square meter concrete shell, commissioning Danish architect Sigurd Larsen for the interior design. The design concept was jointly planned with Sigurd Larsen and Madeleine Schwinge to merge her art studio and the newly founded re:future Lab under one roof. It now forms a perfect unit for studio, research, office, exhibitions, workshops and all sorts of unconventional events, convincingly reflecting the forward-thinking approach of the both operational areas.

Our space is available for rent
We are passionate about inter-connectedness, diversity, fairness, free spirits and crazy dreams.
Our physical space is a 160 m2 concrete building jointly designed by Danish architect Sigurd Larsen. It is located in Spreehalle-Oberschöneweide, Berlin's south east, on the ground of the former industrial AEG Transformatorenwerke.
The central gem of the space is the studio with 6 m high ceiling (2nd floor) which adds a somehow heroic dimension. It is a full floor with open kitchen and an outdoor terrace with a first-hand view of the Spree.
An open-air courtyard is also available for artists and the creative community we are part of, so this comes as an additional space—depending on the weather.
