Our most ambitious project so far, prepared over the last two years, presents a continuous street view of the complete 3.5 km long Leipziger Ring (Leipzig’s central street circle around the old town). The idea was brought up to us by the publishing house Lehmstedt Verlag, who confronted us with a complete view of the […]
We visited the Fitzwilliam Museum in 2017 and were immediately impressed with its atmosphere and art work presentation – so we used the chance to try to apply our photographic technique to document some of its galleries in linearized perspectives. This approach was repeated by our team in 2021 when we documented the Andreas Gursky […]

Berlin is a major focal point in our archive, even before any other european capital. So it is not surprising we now added a calendar dedicated to Berlin facades to our calvendo portfolio.

Usually we get questioned what the difference is between our linear streetline panoramas and a classic panorama. When people are not aware how exactly a place or street we photographed looks like, they might assume we did a classic panorama photography from one viewpoint and that there was enough space in place for us to […]
Berlin in constant change Berlin is above all one thing: a city of contrasts. The elegant boulevards, trendy neighborhoods, village structures, large housing estates, battered facades and royal palaces together create the image of the metropolis. “There is a reason why Berlin is preferable to other cities: because it is constantly changing.” Bertolt Brecht, 1928 […]
A challenge with creating street panoramas from Frankfurt is to combine classic street fronts with Frankfurts skyscrapers. Hence we photographed several street blocks that include high rises and also started with the work on one of these, the Kaiserstrasse together with the Silver Tower and the Gallileo Tower. Beside these street views from the train […]

In early 2013 the advertising agency Rother Pechstein (Berlin) approached us to ask for a set of our unique Berlin street panoramas. They were used for the image business report of the Berlin City Cleaning (BSR), matching its title “Mehr Berlin.” (More Berlin.) in a convincing visual analogy. See images of the report below and […]

In 2012 and 2013 we collected photographies in iceland, which meant we were not only documenting the fascinating beauty of icelands nature, but also the state of its cities.
