FunBox 4KURBAN REDISCOVERY, SOFT CITY introduces three cities, where beautiful transformations have taken place. Cities of high-rise buildings, gray cement floors and torpid atmosphere are in transition to become a city of modern and traditional cultures, an environment and human-friendly city, and a city that values arts. Berlin, Germany now has become the capital of German cultures after complementing its painful war history with arts. Curitiba, Brazil has undergone a drastic transformation from pollution central to the one of most ecologically sustainable cities in the world.
