Savigny Platz moments

What I like a lot about parks and, generally, most part of the green areas in Berlin is that there are not simply reduced at their quality of being green. Humans are leaving their traces in nature, and in the good sense: statues are profiling from the shadows of the bushes, small castles are hidden behind trees, benches are reminding you that you have options for laying on the grass. And this is available not only for big parks, but also for squares or other small parks round the corner. This is my early morning meditation inspired by the pictures took a couple of weeks ago from Savigny Platz. 

Walter-Benjamin-Platz

Games of perspective

Until the inauguration, in 2001, this area was more or less neglected.

When I first arrived here I felt like being part of an artwork of the late Renaissance, with an almost perfect organization of volumes and shapes. 

Very close to Ku'damm and to Savigny Platz, it is a place where you could spend a couple of good 

hours, admiring the silence of the geometrical shapes.

During the summer days, children's voices and laughs are echoed around the colonades. This square is not only about concrete and geometry: you can find a little kiosk with trees as well.

Restaurants and small design shops and an cafe -antiques shop could give you the impression that you are having an utopian dream of the perfect town.

A good refuge against the hours.
