Some of the regeneration projects have had a big impact on the city’s landscape and I think in a positive way. They have blended the old with the new in a way that neither conflicts but compliments the other. This is because in the main, the regeneration has taken place on waste land, a symptom of the unification. The most significant blend of old and now however is of course the Reichstag building. One of the highlights of there trip for me was the Bauhaus museum, where we were able to see some great examples of art and furniture, all in a building befitting one of my favourite periods of art and design.<\/p>\n Matt & I had \u00a0fantastic trip to Berlin this September following our Civil Partnership.

\n<\/a>\u00a0<\/a>A lot of old buildings have been reused mainly by municipal organisations including the former Luftwaffe building which I particularly liked due to its very angular, modernist forms.<\/p>\n<\/a>
