Haus Huth is the only building on Potsdamer Platz originating from the German Empire that has survived the tumultuous history of Berlin virtually unscathed. It currently houses the Berlin office of the DaimlerChrysler concern.
The house, unlit until 2004, was hauled out of the darkness by the lighting design of Kardorff Ingenieure and now stands with presence in its old place surrounded on all sides by modern architecture.
