Berlin Wall mattresses

The Berlin Wall was famously covered in graffiti and slogans. “Nobody has the intention of building a wall” was one of the most famous. Now a team of designers from Berlin has resurrected not just the wall but the slogans too.

The designers thought about what the wall looked like and realised that it looked like a series of mattresses and bolsters standing on their ends.

The design was a response to a call from the city authorities for ideas to celebrate the fall of the Wall on 9th November 1989.

The Wall mattresses will be on display at the Gallery BZP until mid August.
