Sony Centre - Potsdamer Platz, Berlin






After WW2, Potsdamer Platz was left destroyed after originally being a bustling city centre, later becoming a wasteland - with only the Berlin wall as a landmark.

The Sony Centre was built in 2000, part of a redevelopment effort for the area. It contains a mix of shops, cinemas, restaurants, hotels, museums and offices.

Designed by Helmut Jahn (a German-American architect) the building is just stunning.
