Clubs without a dresscode?

You'll have better luck at places like ://about blank or //:Blank, they're known for being more open to creative fashion and personal style. The door policy at those spots is generally about attitude and knowing the music rather than enforcing a techno uniform. For your age group, KitKat's door might be tricky since they often check IDs and prefer a slightly older crowd, but you could try Mensch Meier on a Friday or Saturday. Both are in Friedrichshain and won't bat an eye at colorful makeup and skirts as long as you're not wasted or loud in line.

Your best bet for colorful outfits and techno is probably Griessmuehle's outdoor area or a less peak night at ://about blank. The door at most places is mostly checking for drunk groups and attitude, not specific clothing, so if you're polite and chill you'll probably get in fine. For under 21, check out Suicide Circus on a weekend afternoon or early evening when they're more relaxed about age. Just avoid showing up past 1am as a group of four in bright makeup, that's when the bouncers start getting picky regardless of what you're wearing.

You'll probably have more luck at places that aren't the big-name techno clubs like Berghain or Tresor, where the dress code is pretty strict. I'd check out About Blank or Mensch Meier, both are a bit more relaxed about style and still play solid techno. For your age group, you'll be fine at most smaller clubs, just avoid the door policies that explicitly say "no groups" and try to arrive early, around 11pm, with everyone ready to chat and be friendly. If you want something even more colorful, Sisyphos has a huge outdoor area and people wear all kinds of wild stuff there, but it's a bit of a trek out to the east.

Worth noting that Berlin street names have official umlaut and ß rules that trip people up, so a sign showing "Strasse" versus "Straße" is not actually a spelling error, just an older transcription. Same with "ue" versus "ü" (e.g. "Kantstrasse" vs "Kantstraße"), both are considered valid renderings and you'll see the ß version on the blue Schilder and the ss version on older plaques or in databases that predate Unicode. If the difference you're seeing is between those two forms, there's nothing to fix and both are technically correct.

if the signs u mean are the old enamel ones on the house facades those are often protected as Baudenkmal so nobody's allowed to correct them even if the spelling is outdated. the binding version is whatever is in the Berliner Strassenverzeichnis plus the entry in the Liegenschaftskataster, so if u tell me the street i can point u to the right Bezirksamt Mitte or Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf page. tbh the merged district thing is real but the facade signs are a separate story, theyre basically museum pieces at this point

honestly thats super common in Charlottenburg, the district offices were merged from older Bezirke and nobody ever fixed all the Schilder. if its a real street you can check the official strassenverzeichnis on berlin.de, that list is what the Burgeramt actually goes by. which street is it? some of the Kaiserdamm / Kantstrasse signs are notorious for this.
