leipzig: cospudener see


Cospudener See is an artificial lake in southern Leipzig. Accesible by public transit (bus, tram and S-Bahn), car or bike. From where I used to live it was a 5 - minute drive or a 10 - minute bike ride through the forest. Quite an incredible sight, that forest route, since apparently in the summer the vast majority of the people commute there by bicycles. Wide paths in the woods then make bicycle highways with an incredible amount of cyclists.

leipzig: volkszeitung


That's the title of the main local newspaper, Leipziger Volkszeitung. This structure is a part of their new offices. The way it's symmetrical and asymmetrical at the same time really struck me!
