Right in the middle of Berlin’s RAW grounds, where graffiti, history, and the present merge, stands the TREEHOUSE Berlin. Not a traditional studio, not just an event location. Rather, it is a space full of life, encounters, and atmosphere. Behind this concept and place is Fellin Tümann, who founded the agency behind the venue together with her husband Albert and shaped it with their personalities.
“We create more than just a place. We want to inspire people, connect them, and enable special exchanges – not just events, but experiences.”
The TREEHOUSE is a place that unites contrasts: raw and elegant, spontaneous and yet carefully thought out. “We stand for special experiences, for encounters on equal footing, and for the courage to try something new,” she explains. Whether it’s a business event, concert, or creative production, the goal remains the same: a feeling of freedom, life, and passion. That Tümann managed to create this mix is no coincidence. After a successful career at Axel Springer, she decided to start her own project, a space that reflects her values.
“After many years in large structures, I felt I wanted to live my own ideas and values, without filters. I wanted to build something that not only makes economic sense but also moves people emotionally. So I took the leap, with everything that comes with it. And yes, sometimes with my heart racing.”
Today, the TREEHOUSE is both her professional home and a passion project that she runs together with her husband, Albert Tümann. She had a clear feeling from the start when choosing the location: “The RAW grounds are raw, vibrant, unpolished, just like many good ideas in the beginning. They symbolize Berlin: loud, colorful, imperfect, and full of potential. That’s exactly where a Treehouse belongs.” Between old brick walls, neon lights, and urban sounds, a nearly magical energy unfolds, one that immediately captivates visitors.
Fellin Tümann recalls moments that left a mark: “Maybe the moment when we dimmed the lights for the first time, turned on the music, and everyone just smiled. That’s when I knew: this works.” Or the nights when her husband was still on a ladder at one in the morning with a screwdriver in hand, “Because we wanted to make something possible for our guests that actually wasn’t possible.” Moments like these show that the TREEHOUSE is not just a project but lived passion, a place where ideas, music, and people all find space. She is especially proud of the TREEGARDEN, which has become her favorite spot. “I love how nature, design, and energy come together there. You walk in, and something instantly falls off your shoulders. It’s also the place where most conversations begin, those that later turn into big ideas.”
The TREEHOUSE as Berlin’s Beating Heart
Musically, the TREEHOUSE regularly opens new worlds as well. Shortly before the Berlin HipHop Ball, for example, a concert with J. Hoard and Matthias Löscher takes place there, an unusual but harmonious pairing. “It’s an experience made for the TREEHOUSE: emotional, musical, honest. J. Hoard and Matthias Löscher represent two worlds that complement each other perfectly—soul, jazz, hip-hop, feeling.” The HipHop Ball itself is a particularly meaningful project for Fellin and Albert Tümann. “It brings together exactly what Berlin urgently needs: culture, community, movement. For us, it’s more than an event, it’s a vision to create something sustainable for the urban dance and cultural scene.”
When Fellin Tümann looks to the future, she does so with both calmness and vision. “We want to be a permanent fixture but never become rigid. The TREEHOUSE remains a place in motion, open to art, business, culture, and dialogue. We grow organically, not opportunistically.” Perhaps that is exactly where the strength of this place lies, in its openness to continually reinvent itself without losing its soul. And anyone who has ever been there understands what she means when she says: “Because here, you can still feel that special encounters are possible, with heart, music, ideas, and a pinch of Berlin magic.”
