Planned as a "beacon of freedom", the message of the Congress Hall (HKW - House of World Cultures) could hardly be more significant at present. Designed by Hugh Stubbins, this icon of architectural modernism was built as the United States' contribution to INTERBAU 1957 in Berlin.

MXPRIVÉ is a Berlin-based photographer known for his artistic approach to architecture. His work explores the interplay of light, geometry, and texture, creating visually striking and emotionally resonant images. Since 2021, he has focused on the aesthetics, character, and materiality of buildings, aiming to capture their essence rather than just their form. His minimalist style invites viewers to experience architecture almost physically. With exhibitions in Athen, Budapest, Ostuni, Paris, and Venice, he has quickly gained international recognition.
