Mar
When I think of spring some of these words come to mind:
- Rebirth
- Growth
- Fresh
- New
It’s my favorite time of year. I love how it smells after the rain comes. I love to see the grass turn green and flowers pop up. So here are some fresh images to get you thinking about spring.

Weekly Photography Challenge – Spring

Mar
Ah spring! The smell of fresh flowers in the air, an early morning dew on the grass, and rain shower in the afternoon – some of the signs that spring might be here.

What images pop into your mind when you think of spring? Baby birds, leaves forming on the trees, the last puddles of snow melting, the bees coming to visit the new flowers?
Weekly Photography Challenge – spring
Whatever spring means to you it’s time to get out there and photography it. Your challenge this week is to get off the couch, get outside and see where new life is happening. If there is still snow where you live perhaps a visit to a local greenhouse will inspire you. Here are a few more spring images to get you thinking:

Hovering Home: Near-Invisible Mirrored Forest Residence
07
Mar
[ By Steph in Architecture & Houses & Residential. ]
A white box seems to hover in mid-air in the middle of the forest, with no visible supports suspending it from adjacent trees. This structure isn’t a treehouse at all, and it’s actually at least twice the size it appears. It virtually disappears into its natural environment thanks to the mirrors covering most of its bottom story, reflecting nearby trees and the forest floor.
Izabelin House by Reform Architekt is a woodland retreat outside Warsaw, Poland, designed as a tranquil getaway that blends into the forest, becoming a part of it. Approaching the two-story dwelling from the street side, it doesn’t appear out of the ordinary. It’s when you step to the side or the back that the illusion comes into play.
The white upper story is the only thing that gives the home away from certain angles – otherwise, it might be near-invisible. Other mirrored structures employ reflective panels on the entire exterior surface, or alternate them with wood for an effect that’s extra-surreal. Another approach covers the entire outside of a forest home with images of trees as camouflage.

Backsplash: Deflective “Peeback” Walls Fight Public Urination
06
Mar
[ By WebUrbanist in Design & Guerilla Ads & Marketing. ]
Bouncing waste liquid back at the impolite and intoxicated bar crawlers who treat the streets as their bathroom, the St. Pauli district of Hamburg, Germany, has given fair warning about its water-repellent surfaces with signs that read (translated): “Do not pee here – we pee back.”
The St. Pauli Pees Back project is a response to the shortcomings of other approaches – with 20,000,000 visitors per year, the area has not had much success with signs and fines and fines alone.
Naturally, the locals complain about the smell and sight of this happening on their city’s streets. People getting pissed is one thing, but pissing publicly is quite another.
A super-hydrophobic paint was applied to some of the most popular non-potties in the neighborhood, making sure “it reaches the target demographic” – many locations are marked but some are not, designed to deter people from peeing regardless of notices posted. As one of its organizers put it in German (sounding even better in English translation): “It’s peeback time.”
