The new concept from designer John Nouanesing is called Fenêtres 3.1 and from the picture it is possible that you can’t get what the design really means. Fenêtres 3.1 is a window and not just a simple window. It is a Windows window. Did you get it?

I really like the concept but I wonder what happens if you go to File->Close?

What can you do with a very small piece of land? Well… 2 rooms, kitchen, 3 bedrooms with washrooms and a veranda!

This extremely narrow house belongs to the lady in yellow named Helenita Queiroz Grave Minho and was designed by her. What is very weird is that the house is 1 meter wide by 10 meter tall!!!

It is situated in Madre de Deus, Brazil and at first, the municipality refused, but in the end allowed the construction.

Something like that could be designed in big cities where the space is really a problem because it is expensive, but to live daily in a house so narrow would be exhausting and not very pleasant.

Queen Elizabeth Hotel has 325 rooms and was been built to look like a cruise ship. The total cost? Around $50 million to build, and can be found “between the legendary Toros Mountains and the sparkling turquoise Mediterranean in Göynük, Antalya. Just on the first row of Shopping Center in Göynük.”

The hotel’s website and some additional photos can be found here.

I wonder how much does a room costs…

Antalya is a great destination for tourist and I plan to visit it this summer.

PF1 (Public Farm One) is an urban farm concept built with inexpensive recyclable materials such as cardboard tubes that form a continuous surface to offer space for growing plants in a crowded city.

This could be possible one of the greatest ideas of the future regarding growing plants in a city. Because there is no much space for nature, the suspended farms will turn your city in a green one.

The Queens County Farm Museum and the Horticultural Society of New York gave the plants greenhouse space and assisted with other aspects of the project. The watering system and weekly farmers’ market were created with the help of the Council on the Environment of New York.

A ‘Demolition Party’ is a party where they VIPs are invited to smash, wreck and generally annihilate anything left standing in the building: corridors, stairways, lobbies, rooms, etc.

Belgian designer and artist Arne Quinze created a temporary installation at the 5 star Parisian hotel Le Royal Monceau last month, before the hotel’s closure for a year with Philippe Starck designing the new interiors.

The installation called REBIRTH is a unique futuristic wooden sculpture, the hotel didn’t plan to go quietly giving an exclusive party.

The installation features 15 km of fluorescent red wood and 40 video screens to offer the public a mind-bowing and unique experience.

“REBIRTH reflects the transition moment in which the building’s DNA reveals its disorder, history and countless stories. It bursts out all it’s captured energy of the hotel’s last decades.

It is an organic fragmentation bomb that hangs still in the air, just for one moment, in perfect formation, before dissolving, disappearing and turning into a new, well-structured pattern again…”
