NEUE NATIONALGALERIE.

The cameraphone shots do no justice to the stunning New National Gallery in Berlin by modernist master Mies van der Rohe. Perfectly proportioned (and unintentionally also great for skating - see figures in the foreground), this was the final building of the architect famous for the aphorisms 'Less is more' and 'God is in the details', and the Barcelona chair overused in every hotel and boutique these days.
