City of Freiburg

City of Freiburg is a mural by Tom Brane in Freiburg im Breisgau, southwestern Germany, near the Black Forest. The artwork presents Freiburg through sustainability, solar neighbourhoods and lively community life.

Its focus reaches from Vauban’s plus-energy houses to public transport and low carbon emissions. Rolf Disch’s homes generate more energy than they consume through passive solar heating and advanced insulation. Brane connects those buildings with streets where cyclists, joggers and families share the city’s clean air. Cultural activity and environmentally responsible urban development complete the picture.

Look for the contrast between modern green architecture and Freiburg’s historical charm. Solar neighbourhoods, efficient transport and energy-producing homes give the mural its clearest concrete details.
