Tours of the Komische Oper
quinta, 19 de março de 2015
As far as facades go, the Komische Oper’s couldn’t be more worthy of the title. If you venture there, you’ll see a pretty simple wrapping, a hint that perhaps the Komische Oper is in fact a stripped down opera house. But once you are through the foyer, you’ll see the usual grandeur you’d expect. Why is this so? Well, that’s a question...
Stummfilmkonzerte – Silent Cinema, in concert
terça, 17 de março de 2015
They say a picture is worth a thousand words – but what about when you add a soundtrack? The Stummfilmkonzerte is based upon that very idea – an enhancement of some classics of silent cinema, recontextualised with new music over the top. Sounds simple, but the result is anything but, with Stummfilmkonzerte pretty much worthy of landmark status...
Exploring Berlin’s Start Up Scene
segunda, 26 de janeiro de 2015
According to The Local, a new start-up is founded every 20 minutes in Berlin, with their estimates suggesting 100,000 new jobs by 2020. In 2014, it was the first year of the state endorsed Long Night of the Startups – a chance for investors to meet ideas and for the rest of us to try and get our heads around what a start up is and does. Whilst the very nature of its way of business means Berlin’s start up scene is hard to pin down, with so much of it taking place near Miniloft, we thought it only fair to give you a bit of a rundown.

As the temperatures plummet, there is only one thing guaranteed to keep any Berliner’s heart warm this side of Christmas. The various Weihnachtsmarkt (aka Christmas Market) that spring up across the city mean you are never too far away from a glass of glühwein and a spot of arts and crafts. No exception is the sprawling Christmas marketat the...
Graphothek
terça, 16 de setembro de 2014
Art is best when it is experienced. To spend an afternoon wiling away the hours in front of a painting, drawing, sculpture or installation can – in the best of cases – create those special moments where you find yourself immersed in what’s in front of you.
Public transport in Berlin
terça, 9 de setembro de 2014
When it comes to getting around Berlin, you’re pretty much spoilt for choice. Be it subway, train, bus, tram (and even ferry if you happen to be in the right area), your transport options are myriad and with a 24 hour timetable, they are also able to keep you moving across land and water, most times of the day. It’s a system that many Berliners harbour much secret pride for, airport issues aside.

We profiled Creative Sustainability Tours a little while ago on the Miniloft Blog – a super thoughtful and intelligent tour company that offer some great behind the scenes peeks into Berlin life.
Park am Gleisdreieck
terça, 8 de julho de 2014
Berlin is not really wanting on the park front, with a bit of green space for everyone somewhere in the city. Whether it’s the winding streets of Tiergarten, the waterfall that runs through Viktoriapark, the sprawling oasis of the Naturpark Südgelände or the urban playground of Görlitzer Park in Kreuzberg, you’ve pretty much got a park for practically every mood.
