Fritz Bornemann (1912–2007) was a German architect who designed the Deutsche Oper Berlin (1961) — a Brutalist-Modernist opera house whose austere, windowless facade on Bismarckstraße is one of West Berlin's most uncompromising architectural statements. The building replaced an opera house destroyed in World War II, and its stark exterior deliberately contrasts with the rich acoustics and visual opulence of the performance spaces within.
