Additional Information
Post the collapse of the wall, Berlin became an affordable city to dwell, making it a breeding ground for creativity. It lured in a variety of individuals such as counter-culturists, free spirits, punk rockers, the young and progressive minds from every corner of the planet. They were drawn by the fall of authoritarian rule and the emergence of artistic freedom within the abandoned edifices of East Germany’s communism. All over the city, squatted houses, project residences, art galleries and communities sprung up. Despite the unswerving wave of gentrification, Berlin remains a vibrant centre magnetizing artists, musicians and nomads worldwide!
