recycling and reusing


This peace of ground is of my design.It's across from the Blaak trainstation in Rotterdam, Holland. The long lines symbolise a ploughed Wheatfield. The groves and hills are represented by grass and flowers. The grass lines are 2 meters wide and represent the groves. Between the lines of grass the hills are represented by flowers, as following: 50 cm of low flowers on each side of 50 cm of high sunflowers.
To bad it was planted to late to really show the design I had in mind, next year my design will be visible.
The peace of land next to it was also to have been designed by me, but do to complication it wasn’t possible to carry it out as well.
The concept of my design was to bring nature back to the city. To show how nature recycles and reuses itself. That when something dies, it is used to feed the new. So the plan was to use wood and stone from torn down buildings to create new thing in this peace of nature, contributing and improving the environment instead of polluting it. And this is a beautiful solution as well.
