Like Idea + Spaces | Around the World - Elle Decoration South Africa

One of my favourite shoots this year by Elle Decoration South Africa, is the Deco-Idea

Article, World Wide Walls. Freckin love the African Doll infront of the China Wall

or the Books on the Argentina Wall. Pretty much cooler than Amelie's Knome. That

thing is just freaky.

LIKE IDEA | THE UMBRELLAS - CHRISTO + JEANNE-CLAUSE - JAPAN/USE 1984-91

SOME INFO FROM WIKIPEDIA

Christo and Jeanne-Claude prepared for their next project, "The Umbrellas". The plan was to have yellow umbrellas set up in California and blue umbrellas in Japan at the same time. In December 1990, after much preparation, the first steel bases for the umbrellas were installed. At the bases 80 cm long anchors were fastened to the ground to withstand tensions of 1,500 kgf (15 kN). In September 1991 the umbrellas were brought to their places by 2,000 workers. In California, some of the bases were transported to the site by helicopter. The final cost of the project totaled $26 US million. By 7 September, 1,340 blue umbrellas in Ibaraki and 1,760 yellow umbrellas at the Tejon Ranch in southern California had been set up; the exhibition opened on 9 October 1991. In total, 3 million people saw the umbrellas, each measuring 6 meters in height and 8.66 meters in diameter. The umbrellas became a huge tourist attraction, finding use as everything from picnic spots to wedding altars. On 26 October 1991, one of the umbrellas in California was toppled by high winds, killing one woman and injuring several others. The exhibit was ordered closed immediately.^[11]
