The project

Referring to the unofficial twinnings that reflect Berlin’s current immigrant population instead of the official equivalents of the city, the project explores the city’s long tradition of urban horticulture and reveals ideas of health in the widest sense: as balance and imbalance as well as on a societal and personal level, looking at how people navigate and share resources within a city.

If you have a garden, you need to obey the rules of gameplay.


If you have a garden, you need to obey the rules of gameplay. They are comparable with house rules and enacted by the legislator, they comprise the Plant Protection Law, the Neighbour Law, the German Civil Code, noise-protection and protection of the environment. We keep the garden complex in order in a joint effort and everyone takes part in cleaning and maintaining the pathways. We all spend around 10 hours a year helping out.
Peter Ehrenberg, chairman of Landesverband der Gartenfreunde Berlin e. V.
