The Colorful House

This shot show a building in a Berlin housing area called "Falkenberg Garden City" (or "Gartenstadt Falkenberg" for those you speak german). This housing are is colloquially also called the "Tuschekastensiedlung", which could be roughly translated as "paint-box settlement". When looking at this photo I guess you know why :-) Very niche buildings they have there, all in different colours. So, if you have a stay in Berlin, maybe you want to have a look - it is really nice.

 

Architect of the whole housing area was Bruno Taut.

 

This shot has not been taken with my prime camera. Instead I used my "shoot-and-run" camera, which is a Fujifilm X-10.
