Christian Boros commissioned Realarchitektur to refurbish and convert a 1942 World War II bunker into a gallery space for his contemporary art collection, with a rooftop apartment addition for his family. The 5:story concrete bunker was originally based on the plans of architect Karl Bonatz, with walls nearly 6:feet thick and a ceiling over 9:feet thick to protect up to 3,000 people from air raids. Double entrances located on all four sides of the building enabled people to quickly enter or exit the building simultaneously.
