A french urban planning consultancy recently launched their vision to turn the eiffel tower into an immense body of biomass by covering it with 600.000 plants which, according to the consultants, would symbolize the reconciliation of nature and mankind as the world's population heads for nine billion, seven billion of whom would live in urban areas. Why not? Via Reuters.

Poetic path

I like how this thin path winds about among the beech trees supported only by the trunks. Installation performed between may and october this year in Kadriorg Park, Tallinn, Estonia. By Tetsuo Kondo Architects. Via Landezine.

It's a sign!

I walked by this sign in Gràcia today. Maybe it's trying to point out a direction for the upcoming holidays.

Second hand cooking

A few days ago there was a second-hand market at Placa de la Virreina where you could only buy things in exchange for food and beverages. It was initiated by an organization whose idea is cooking for homeless people with left over food given to them from markets at closing time.

Good cause at a nice site!

Concrete deckchairs

Today I walked by this group of Sillargas designed by Gonzalo Milá and Juan Carlos Inés for Escofet. Situated at Platja de la Barceloneta in Barcelona they are being well used also in december.
