Gartenstadt Falkenberg, Berlin, Bruno Taut, 1913-1915

April 2014
Spring has come early this year; the place is full of colours, more than just those that Taut designed one hundred years ago for the façades. With everything in bloom this may look almost kitschy, but was this sunny Sunday my fault? I could not peek inside, but I noticed one fact: pathways to the black-and-orange row houses are separate, but there are no fences among the gardens. Luckily the smallest, oldest and most distant of the Berlin's six Unesco-protected Siedlungen seems to live its own life.
