Denmark not only has Legoland, but also these awesome public playgrounds! Makes me want to be a kid all over again! Now I have to set all my hopes on my kids when they need adult guidance on these playgrounds… 

Great designs by http://www.monstrum.dk/en

Recreating the Big Bang…

…or a black hole, or discovering the GOD Particle, or finding elements that can move faster than light.

Whatever it is they are trying to do there at CERN underground make sure you look good doing it is what they must have thought. These images from 2012 are beautiful by itself, but the machinery is unimaginably complex and beautiful at the same time. I hope some aliens will give us props for this one day!

Combine the cool use of colors in this Favela in Sao Paulo with this Color chart (click to enlarge): Psychology of Colors

And you know exactly where the babies cry, where they are hungry and where the men like to hang out!

We need more color in this world!

Panic Room is what this room in a hotel in Marseille is called. Probably because it is possible that when you wake up after a long night of drinking you think one half of your brain is dead. It does mess with your mind…

I wouldn’t want to sleep in it (probably), but you can also try one of the other six themed rooms created by artists. The hotel website: www.auvieuxpanier.com

These pictures about a Sun City retirement colony somewhere in the southwest of the US are just surreal. The settings, the people, the colors…

But, I guess it’s better than sitting in some dark retirement home alone waiting for family to come visit.

Pictures by German photographer Peter Granser.

And the saga will continue forever! Star Wars is still an inspiration for many graffiti street artists! “Like I do a lot!!” (pronounce like Yoda)

Paradise Parking

A new series of work by Peter Lippmann. Awesome display of what seem to be (really) old abandoned French cars which are being reclaimed by mother nature. Loving these pictures!

Another one of those hidden architecture gems in the city of Amsterdam. It is again in one of those locations many will not see, or drive by fast. From the street in the front it is completely invisible (Sarphatistraat), and on the other side there is water and quite a busy road.

Part office, part conference area, but completely gorgeous!

Nedisco-complex

Even though this building, where they made periscopes(!??!), is actually looking at it’s finest stripped to the core like these pictures it is obviously such a nice structure to do something with.

Keeping the minimalist modernist 1920’s architecture style intact and updating the interior to meet the modern day standards should be looking great once finished. It will become a mixed between housing and offices. 

To bad it is in Venlo…
