lindfors : climate change
new york-based architecture firm, studio lindfors imagined what would happen if new york and tokyo were hit by catastrophic rises in sea-level in their new series titled 'aqualta'. the images depict everyday life in this unusual scenario in two of the world’s biggest seaside cities. people navigate new york city in gondolas or fish from newly formed river banks in the heart of tokyo. the series is an eye-opening speculation of what might happen if global warming predictions come true and sea-levels do rise in these compact metropolises. the images also allow us to see what the urban landscape will look like in this scenario and how the built environment may change. more here.

crown fountain, chicago
the city of chicago has done an impressive job with the re-development of millennium park over the last decade. the crown fountain, located on one edge of the park, is the center of activity on a hot day and is fun to see from a lot of different angles. the fountains are enormous glass brick towers with images projected on their surfaces. the faces change from one to the next at a slow, steady pace while water runs down the outside of the towers, splashing as it runs over the bricks. every few minutes there is a surge of water that comes out of the “mouth”. all of this while people are walking around, splashing, looking at these columns and faces that are several times larger in scale. it’s fantastic- equally as much fun to stand back and watch with the city in the background.
