Frankfurt Skyline Inside - Outside

That the Frankfurt skyline is imposing and unique in Germany, should already be known. Pictures of the view of the skyscrapers are also already like sand by the sea. It is therefore extremely difficult to add new facets to this well-known sight. But Ulrich Mattner has accomplished this difficult task in his illustrated book "Frankfurt Skyline: Inside - Outside" impressively mastered.

For the photographer has not only captured the facades of the modern towers in sometimes very engaging perspectives. He also takes a look inside the skyscrapers and a look outside them. In the process, he has succeeded in taking some great pictures, such as the view of the Main metropolis from the boardroom on the 49th floor of the Commerzbank Tower, the sun-drenched Sky Lounge in the BHF Bank Tower or a cross-section of the hustle and bustle in the Skyper high-rise. The wellness area of the Radisson Hotel makes you want to check in immediately to the hotel, which is as eye-catching as it is unique thanks to its circular shape, and the Gallileo Tower, illuminated at night, exudes a truly fascinating atmosphere.

Some of the photos take a little getting used to at first with their rather washed-out look, but in the overall context they too contribute to the book's sometimes very fascinating atmosphere. The mixture of sweeping views of the skyline and almost intimate glimpses behind the facades of the skyscrapers makes this fine illustrated book a real recommendation for every Frankfurt lover. Because one thing is guaranteed: you have never seen the Frankfurt skyline like in this book!
