Work (selection)

Yvonne Kohlert carried out many projects in collaboration with artists or architects.

  • 1998/1999: Redesign of the green areas in the interior northeast of Storkower Straße, for which the name Einsteinpark was decided.
Einstein Pavilion in Berlin
Plans for a memorial pavilion for the namesake Albert Einstein . Stonemasons commissioned by the district office produced six roughly hewn pillars from gray granite with five granite beams on top according to their designs. Two half-height basalt columns with a polished sloping surface were placed between three steles . The pavilion, which is open on all sides, stands slightly elevated on a hexagonal surface and its shape symbolizes a hexagonal prism .
Einstein's formulas can be found on the pillars and beams of the building. Immediately next to the architectural object, its best-known formula is embedded in small paving stones as a floor mosaic: E = mc2 .
  • 2002/2003: Schoolyards in Mendelssohnstrasse and Heinrich-Roller-Strasse:
A large sandpit was built in Mendelssohnstrasse, as well as a wooden playhouse, wooden climbing frames and a very stable multi-person swing.
A colorful, long-tailed dragon was installed in the school yard of the Heinrich Roller Elementary School for exercise.
  • 2003: The blue dragon playground for the primary school at Falkplatz , Gleimstraße 49; together with Kerstin Gersch.
Installation of a concrete kite, decorated with blue mosaic stones all around, as a climbing device.
  • 2005: Pocket Park living room in Pankower Florastraße 87, together with Kerstin Gersch and Igor Jerschov
It is a square installation specially designed for the blind . On the imaginary floor plan of a Wilhelminian style house , the artists designed a complete “apartment”, consisting of a suggested “apartment door”, “bedroom”, “living room”, “kitchen” and “hall”. There is also a small, narrow “garden” on the right and left with a metal fence, in the middle of which is the ramp-like access to the “front door”. All "rooms" are with large pieces of furniture or utensils made of colorful mosaic haptic equipped. A “seating group” with a couch, two armchairs and a table, on which a human-annoying-not- game board is incorporated, represents the “living room”. The “park users” can enter it through a “door” marked on the floor "Bedroom" with a bed with a rose-adorned "pillow". In the "hall" there is another "seating area",
The living room park takes the concerns of blind people into account by the fact that the imaginary room walls are embedded in the floor with stone lines and that can be clearly felt with the white cane. The floors are paved with pavement stones. In addition, everything is marked in large letters.
The Pocket Park was awarded the Gustav Meyer Special Prize for excellently planned and built garden architecture in 2005.
  • Municipal playgrounds in Jablonskistraße
  • 2007: the ceramic work of art Drei Benches in the playground of the Elizabeth Shaw Elementary School , the former Second Community School , inaugurated in 1903 , at Pankower Grunowstraße 17
Here she also worked with Christine Gersch and Igor Jerschov.
