Art Installation

Subterranean Rural City
German artist EVOL recently completed an interesting interactive installation just outside of Hamburg, Germany for the MS Dockville music and art festival. The ‘Rural City’ is comprised of thin trenches about 1.5 meters deep in an ‘X’ shape that were dug out over the course of 8 days. Earth is held back with retaining boards made of Eternit and spray painted to resemble the facades of skyscrapers. -- ArchDaily

An Apartment Under The Bridge
Berlin-based urban intervention collective Stiftung Freizeit has designed an illusionary ‘Wohnzimmer’ under a bridge in Berlin. Made with tape, this minimal but cosy ‘apartment’ combines the raw esthetics of grey concrete with the warm and intimate feeling of the typical German Wohnzimmer interior. -- The Pop-Up City

ACUO, Prague, Czech Republic, 2011 designed by Edit! architects
Acuo is an inter­ac­tive audio-visual instal­la­tion for pub­lic spaces. It is based on the con­cept by Michal Šeba, with the sup­port of munic­i­pal projects BU2R. With its shape and func­tions, Acuo resem­bles a cos­mic mod­ule which has landed in the city to observe the affairs around. Acuo sees and hears in a way dif­fer­ent from ours.  -- ArchDaily

‘Frozen Trees’ Installation, Lisbon, Portugal designed by Like Architects
Frozen Trees is a temporary installation for Christmas lighting in D. Pedro IV square in Lisbon. It builds an illuminated, frozen and fractal Christmas landscape that affects and alters the path of passers by as thirty cylinders – structured, self-sufficient streetlights – are placed throughout the square, drawing a new landscape and context and inviting the visitors to new spatial experiences.  -- ArchDaily
