If a trip to Berlin is a Christmas wish, that is to be executed immediately, or before the mid-January at the latest, then Kulturforum is fully worth a visit.
The exhibition is a sumptuous journey through a world of typographic design in the past century. You won't miss anything, except maybe from your own design :) but you will easily live with that in this overwhelming flood, this tsunami of letters.
