Temple of Trash

By Alex in Architecture, Arts & Crafts, Pictures, Travel & Places on Sep 14, 2009 at 3:16 am


In the Follydock IFCR festival in 2007, artists, designers, and architects came together in an abandoned part of Rotterdam, the Netherlands, to design "follies" or strange and playful structures that defy traditional architectural wisdom (not to mention common sense).

This one above, the Temple of Trash, was made by the SALZIG Design Team. It’s composed of 100 tonnes of plastic bottles compressed into bales of garbage.
