Design is taken very seriously in Berlin. So is sustainability. These two imperatives are combined in an extraordinary new house designed by local architectural practice Brandt + Simon Architekten.

This eco-friendly single family house features a pixelated façade formed using gradated green ceramic tiles.  The house also features solar energy panels, and was constructed using a raft of eco materials, including recycled paper insulation in order to create a green (both literally and metaphorically) living space.
