Germany Rainbow House at Herzbergstraße, Berlin

The Regenbogenhaus at Herzbergstraße is a striking example of how color can transform functional architecture, featuring a massive rainbow mural that spans across its tiled, gridded facade.

To capture this abstract, graphic effect, use a telephoto lens to compress the building's planes and focus on the alignment of the colorful bands. An aperture around f/8 is ideal for maintaining sharp detail throughout the grid, and while a tripod is possible, you can easily correct any perspective misalignments in post-processing. Because this specific shot is a 100% crop, don't be afraid to zoom in or crop tightly to emphasize the intersection of the rainbow's curves with the building's rigid geometry.
