‘Berlin’ is a personal photobook depicting a friend's group vacation to Germany’s capital city. Focussing on colourful moments, fashion and interactions with the city and each other. The photos move between candid moments and posed pictures. Candid moments show the intimate bubble that is created once a group of friends decide to spend a week together. The posed pictures depict joy, self expression and playfulness that is invited once a camera is introduced.

The book design is inspired by the practical, industrial yet creative and colourful atmosphere of Berlin.
