When someone looks to the horizon it is a mixture of two landscapes; the upper part indicates an urban skyline while the bottom half shows a rural landscape.

noise wall aims to install a noise wall to protect an untouched tree. Noise walls are structures designed to isolate people from artificial sounds. Erected noise wall protects the tree from these sources of noises which do not belong to nature but a product of industrial revolution, including motors, tyres, machinery and trains - that belong to urban environment.

The noise wall is a reflection of natural vs artificial dichotomy in zwischenstadt and peri-urbanization of Breitenlee.
