Berlin – always a step ahead – has countless stairways. To doors, apartments, to heaven.
Young Berlin-based photographer Jorge Alva captures these stairs perfectly for his Instagram account Urbanentdecker. His photographs focus on abstraction and colors, structures and perspectives. Every single photo he publishes embodies the perfect composition. Jorge seems to love interesting staircases in particular, photographing a lot of them here in Berlin. While looking at them, we couldn’t help but wonder about ourselves. About how steps are just like the road to self-discovery, climbing to ourselves. Our thoughts and Jorge’s marvelous photographs – right after the jump. Read on…

Having the same taste when it comes to Sofia Coppola films, Haruki Murakami stories or the philosophy of the Little Prince we wanted the film to convey a feeling somewhere between the songs of The xx and Lost in Translation, but with a Berlin tonality or in other words in our personal way of course.
