Dreaming
I love these pictures from http://www.kleurinspiratie.nl/blog/geraffineerd-grijs.html.
The wallpaper from Graham & Brown in combination with this cosy hanging chair make you dream that you are in a forest. Below is an example from a modern classic interior. The lamp and the green fruits give the whole a boost.

Region in transition, Ruhr 2010 .........
After Ruhr 2010 we were not finished with this area in transition.
So this year we went again for 3 day's.
Things you have to see are the landscape park Duisburg Nord and the Zechen Zollferein in Essen.
The basis of these project were the same, a complete area with plants that are not used anymore. Demolishing was a option but also a very expensive one. So the made the right choice to leave the building as they are.
The difference between these two projects is that the Zechen Zollferein has a clear use, for example the Ruhrmuseum and the Red Dot Design museum that are in the buildings. In the landscape park of course de buildings have a function but the the idea is that nature can take over. The functions came also more organically. For example the climbers have a big space were they climb, even for small children there is a wall to climb. The Divers -association has her own base in the old gasometer, now the 'Tauch-gasometer'.
Below some impressions of both projects.
