Did You Know?

These flowerbeds suggest the presence of a “clear spring” or Hellbrunn in old German.

Description

The designer Josef Frank rotated his woodblock designs in half turns, resulting in a mirrored effect as though the colorful flowerbeds were reflecting onto a body of water. Named for the Hellbrunn palace in Austria, built in the 1600s, the design likely refers to the palace’s renowned therapeutic springs.
