The Eden Project is a visitor attraction in the United Kingdom, including the world's largest greenhouse. Inside the artificial biomes are plants that are collected from all around the world. The project is located in a reclaimed Kaolinite pit, located 2 kilometers (1.25 mi) from the town of St Blazey and 5 kilometres (3 mi) from the larger town of St Austell, Cornwall.
The complex is dominated by two enclosures consisting of adjoining domes that house plant species from around the world. Each enclosure emulates a natural biome. The domes consist of hundreds of hexagonal and pentagonal, inflated, plastic cells supported by steel frames. The first dome emulates a tropical environment, and the second a Mediterranean environment.
The project was conceived by Tim Smit and designed by architect Nicholas Grimshaw and engineering firm Anthony Hunt and Associates (now part of Sinclair Knight Merz). Davis Langdon carried out the project management, Sir Robert McAlpine and Alfred McAlpine did the construction and MERO designed and built the biomes. Land Use Consultants led the masterplan and landscape design. The project took 2½ years to construct and opened to the public on 17 March 2001.

In the early 19th Century Robert Pocock was the first local printer, historian, antiquarian and natural history observer in the town of Gravesend in Kent (UK). He was a major figure in the history of the town. He had a 'museum' of artifacts, collected by himself but also acquired from all over the world. His collections included thousands of local plants in an herbarium which, in 2013, the Robert Pocock Herbarium Project set out to find at the Natural History Museum.
A page from one of the books written by Pocock for children (I assume that it was printed and published by him also). It is claimed that this work is amongst the earliest books published specifically to help children learn to read.

The Hungarian Museum of Applied Arts is organising a project on recycleing the leftovers of the enameled roof tiles of the building - into jewellery. The amazing buliding was constructed between 1893 and 1896 in the sprit of the secession. The ceramic ornaments and tiles were made by the famous Zsolnay factory.
I received 3 palm size, very dirty pieces and made my experiments with them, finally I decided the design.
It is a fantastic material. By flex shaft I can cut it and the more that 110 years old enamel does not peal off at all! You can see on the picture that even on the tiny parts it is intact. The back is a porous but strong whiteish ceramic.
SO... I made this sterling pendant that you can fill up with the Zsolnay ceramic tiles. You've got the choice of 4 coloures, you've got 8-8 square tiles and there are also 2 triangles. In the future I plan to make some additional fillings too. You slide the tiles into the frame and then you pull the black leather string thight that closes the top.
I asked my mathematician brother how many combinations can one create with this setup. He made some quick calculations and the result is:
If you use all 4 coloures, both the triangles and the square tiles you can make 983040 (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) different pendants (including that on the back side you have the "opposite" combination)
Let's say that I would sell this jewel for 300 money (have not decided yet). It means that for this price you have 983040 pendants, so you only pay 0.00030517578 money for one pendant. It is practicly free!! Don't miss this occasion!!
One more reason to buy it: If you wear every day a different combination, you will be more than 2693 years old when you finish it - and by that time you can update the coulours and shapes to extend it by a couple of thousand years.
This is NOT my original idea... but I saw it somewhere and thought it would be fun to try. And what better time than when the weekly photo challenge theme is "open your heart"?

YAHOO! MAKES RP A MORE PURPLE PLACE
“Project Purple” Unveiled to Power Pinoy Passions
MANILA, May 26, 2009 - Yahoo! today demonstrates its place as a highly relevant and essential tool to power Pinoy passions by spearheading a social movement called Project Purple, to help Filipinos Find, Share and Connect to the things that matter most to them.
Project Purple powers Pinoy passions by encouraging Filipinos to be creative, innovative, express opinions and be heard and listened to in a fun and fresh way. It’s an effort that links to Yahoo!’s brand promise to transform the lives of people, societies and economies.
“Project Purple is a social movement and is open to everyone – online and offline. We are rallying Pinoys to be Purple and utilize the internet to aim higher,” said Jojo Anonuevo, general manager, Yahoo!

Purple is Yahoo!’s corporate colour which reflects the company’s brand personality and philosophy of innovation, uniqueness, creativity and passion. With this campaign, Yahoo! aims to call out to all Filipinos who share this same vision to bring innovation and a positive change in the Philippines. As catalyst for Project Purple, Yahoo! empowers Filipinos through internet services that enable them to pursue their passions. Through a creative mix of online and offline initiatives, Yahoo! Project Purple brings awareness to the things Filipinos are passionate about and how they can be found on Yahoo!.
“The social movement started in the United States with the ‘Start Wearing Purple’ campaign. We are happy to bring this to the Philippines—the very first country outside the US where there are millions of creative, innovative and passionate Pinoys. Today, Yahoo! is excited to connect the country together in this campaign and we expect many more to join us in the coming weeks”, said Anonuevo.

I've finished July, chosen my colours for August and made a start on that part.
Saturday, 17th June 2017.
This of course doesn't look like a patio, but the landlord told us more than once that it will look like one 'in summer' (and as always, he forgot to mention which year). The apartment next to the derelict balcony is not the one I'm living in, but the view is bad enough for anyone who is forced to pass by every day. And btw, it's not a good idea to accuse others of 'compulsive hoarding' if your house is a mess like this!
(In this photo you can also see that Project staircase, started in 2006, is still not finished!)
(Das hier sieht natürlich nicht wie eine Terrasse aus, soll aber laut dem Vermieter 'im Sommer' mal eine werden (wie immer hat er vergessen, das Jahr zu erwähnen). Die Wohnung, die zu dem heruntergekommenen Balkon gehört, ist nicht meine, aber der Anblick ist schon schlimm genug für jeden, der gezwungenermaßen jeden Tag hier vorbeigehen muß. Übrigens ist es keine gute Idee, andere als "Messie" zu beschimpfen, wenn das eigene Haus ein solcher S**stall ist!
(Auf diesem Bild kann man auch erkennen, daß das Projekt Treppenaufgang, angefangen im Jahr 2006, immer noch nicht beendet ist!))
The Sabarmati Riverfront Development Project began as an urban renewal project to significantly improve the spatial structure and habitat conditions of the river and adjoining areas. This project aims to transform Ahmedabad’s historic yet neglected river into a vibrant and vital focus for the city. Ideas for the development of the Sabarmati River began with proposals in the early 1960s. In 1997, the Sabarmati Riverfront Development Corporation Ltd. (SRFDCL) was formed byt the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation and construction began in 2004.
The development project encompasses both banks of the Sabarmati for a 10.5 kms. stretch, creating approximately 185 hectares of reclaimed land. The Fatewadi Canal is fed by water stored in the Vasna Barrage through releases from the Narmada Canal, this made it possible to store water in the river for irrigation purposes - enabling a public waterfront. The project includes water management systems to minimize flooding in traditionally flood-prone areas and to clean up the Sabarmati with new sewage treatment infastructure. These include providing interceptor sewer lines along both banks of the river to divert sewage to Ahmedabad’s two sewage treatment plants; and building retaining walls which will protect the low-lying areas near the riverbanks from flooding.
A key element of the project is a new linear two-level promenade. The lower promenade with a minimum width of 10 meters, will be just above water level, providing uninterrupted pedestrian access to the water. The upper promenade will host a variety of public buildings, cultural and educational institutions, public parks and plazas and a few areas for commercial development, while new traffic infrastructure will connect the riverfront to the city.
The project aspires to create a unique identity for Ahmedabad by creating a unique skyline for the city. Being a landmark project with far reaching impacts, it is the backbone for rejuvenating inner city neighborhoods adjacent to the riverfront project, thereby spurring future developments within the city.

Initial planning: the Nautilus project, an attempt to build a Disney-inspired model of the submarine Nautilus from the Jules Verne novel 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, scaled for 4-inch action figures.
Okay, they're not really "action figures," they're dolls.
Trying to get a sense of scale -- how big should it be? I'm working in an amalgam of standard and metric units: most of the potentially useful pieces I'm finding can be measured in even increments of inches, but I'm sketching my plans in a 1cm = 1 inch scale. I was trying to hold the size to a meter (39 inches), but to get the right look, I think I'll have to extend the length to 42 inches (107cm).
I should probably keep some reference photos at hand. Later I will have to do so, in order to shape some of the sections reasonably accurately. What I'm going for, however, is a "suggestion" of the Disney Nautilus, so at this point what I'm doing is roughing in the approximate shape I want from memory.
Serendipitously, I found a plank that is the exact width I came up with in my plan for the main deck. At present the approach is to create a "waterline model" of how the Nautilus would look floating on the surface of the sea. Creating a full 3-D hull is beyond the scope of this project, although I'll try to craft this so that I might add more detail if I feel so inclined.
I'm thinking I may try to avoid the use of much cardboard, and focus instead on styrofoam and plastic, so the model might actually float. This would facilitate photos later.
There's a good chance this project will not advance beyond the "drawing board" stage.

No. 1 - 5: Exploring Canterbury.
Canterbury Cathedral
The Great Cloister.
CLOISTER (Lat. claustrum; Fr. cloitre; Ital. chiostro; Span. claustro; Ger. Kloster). The word "cloister," though now restricted to the four-sided enclosure, surrounded with covered ambulatories, usually attached to coventual and cathedral churches, and sometimes to colleges, or by a still further limitation to the ambulatories themselves, originally signified the entire monastery. In this sense it is of frequent occurrence in earlier English literature (e.g. Shakespeare, Meas. for Meas. i. 3, " This day my sister should the cloister enter"), and is still employed in poetry. The Latin claustrum, as its derivation implies, primarily denoted no more than the enclosing wall of a religious house, and then came to be used for the whole building enclosed within the wall. To this sense the German "Kloster" is still limited, the covered walks, or cloister in the modern sense, being called "Klostergang," or "Kreuzgang." In French the word cloitre retains the double sense.
d k In the special sense now most common, the word "cloister" enotes the quadrilateral area in a monastery or college of canons, round which the principal buildings are ranged, and which is usually provided with a covered way or ambulatory running all round, and affording a means of communication between the various centres of the ecclesiastical life, without exposure to the weather. According to the Benedictine arrangement, which from its suitability to the requirements of monastic life was generally adopted in the West, one side of the cloister was formed by the church, the refectory occupying the side opposite to it, that the worshippers might have the least annoyance from the noise or smell of the repasts. On the eastern side the chapter-house was placed, with other apartments belonging to the common life of the brethren adjacent to it, and, as a common rule, the dormitory occupied the whole of the upper story. On the opposite or western side were generally the cellarer's lodgings, with the cellars and store-houses, in which the provisions necessary for the sustenance of the confraternity were housed. In Cistercian monasteries the western side was usually occupied by the "domus conversorum," or lodgings of the lay-brethren, with their day-rooms and workshops below, and dormitory above. The cloister, with its surrounding buildings, generally stood on the south side of the church, to secure as much sunshine as possible. A very early example of this disposition is seen in the plan of the monastery of St Gall. Local requirements, in some instances, caused the cloister to be placed to the north of the church. This is the case in the English cathedrals, formerly Benedictine abbeys, of Canterbury,
Although the covered ambulatories are absolutely essential to the completeness of a monastic cloister, a chief object of which was to enable the inmates to pass from one part of the monastery to another without inconvenience from rain, wind, or sun, it appears that they were sometimes wanting.
We learn from Osbern's account of the conflagration of the monastery of Christ Church, Canterbury, 1067, that a cloister with covered ways existed at that time, affording communication between the church, the dormitory and the refectory. We learn from an early drawing of the monastery of Canterbury that this cloister was formed by an arcade of Norman arches supported on shafts, and covered by a shed roof. A fragment of an arcaded cloister of this pattern is still found on the eastern side of the infirmarycloister of the same foundation.
The older design was preserved in the South, where "the cloister is never a window, or anything in the least approaching to it in design, but a range of small elegant pillars, sometimes single, sometimes coupled, and supporting arches of a light and elegant design, all the features being of a character suited to the place where they are used, and to that only"
The cloister of a religious house was the scene of a large part of the life of the inmates of a monastery. It was the place of education for the younger members, and of study for the elders.
At Canterbury the monks' school was in the western ambulatory,
For this purpose small studies, known as "carrols," i.e. a ring or enclosed space, were often found in the recesses of the windows. Of this arrangement there are examples at Gloucester, Chester and elsewhere. The use of these studies is thus described in the Rites of Durham: - " In every wyndowe" in the north alley "were iii pewes or carrells, where every one of the olde monkes had his carrell severally by himselfe, that when they had dyned they dyd resorte to that place of cloister, and there studyed upon their books, every one in his carrell all the afternonne unto evensong tyme. This was there exercise every daie." On the opposite wall were cupboards full of books for the use of the students in the carrols. The cloister arrangements at Canterbury were similar to those just described.
The larger monastic establishments had more than one cloister; there was usually a second connected with the infirmary, of which there are examples at Westminster Abbey and at Canterbury; and sometimes one giving access to the kitchen and other domestic offices.

Alright Gary. Here's my starting point. I wanted the tile to be level to the floor so we tore up a raised section someone had added hoping the floor underneath could be used. What we found was a 5 inch deep hole in the floor! Here it's been filled and the beginning frame work is in place. The brick will remain exposed and we're adding a couple of sconces then the hard part. Deciding the design of the mantel. I've changed my mind about a dozen times already!
The Eden Project is a visitor attraction in Cornwall, England. Inside the two biomes are plants that are collected from many diverse climates and environments. The project is located in a reclaimed Kaolinite pit, located 2 km (1.2 mi) from the town of St Blazey and 5 km (3 mi) from the larger town of St Austell, Cornwall.
The complex is dominated by two huge enclosures consisting of adjoining omes that house thousands of plant species, and each enclosure emulates a natural biome. The biomes consist of hundreds of hexagonal and pentagonal, inflated, plastic cells supported by steel frames. The largest of the two biomes simulates a Rainforest environment and the second, a Mediterranean environment. The attraction also has an outside botanical garden which is home to many plants and wildlife native to Cornwall and the UK in general; it also has many plants that provide an important and interesting backstory, for example, those with a prehistoric heritage.

I decided to follow a new direction for this project. Experiencing the current pandemic situation and having to stay quarantined for safety, I was having issues with myself and the artworks I was creating. I felt like it was unimportant to keep making the same kind of sculptures in the current moment. I felt like there were more pressing matters to attend than making cute, fun, little figurines. Plus, all that was filling my mind was anxieties about knowing if my family and friends were safe after checking the news all day every day to see how close and in which locations new cases of the virus were being found. I felt the need to create some more literal art piece which reminded me of the chapter on language in our book, which reminded me of Jenny Holzer's work with the large projections and light signs. I figured I could express what I was feeling and being surrounded with by working in a similar way.
The bottom sign is more of what the news casts were telling people to do, and the top sign is what I was seeing friends and family post on the internet. I also added the part "We are here because we are here.." as a reference to a time in WWI were British soldiers stopped to sing this in the battlefield over and over as a form of expressing how they felt trapped in battle and danger without knowing even the reason for them to be there.

This is Circus Sam, the world renowned Dragon Trick-Rider displaying his prodigious skills amount the back of a wild dragon. Listen as Sam calls out to his audience, "Look Ma! No hands! And only one foot even! I'd like to see Dennis the Dragon Rider attempt a feat like this. He is such a stumblebum, tangle-foot that he would end up as so much toe-jam between the dragon's claws."
"Gaze on in awe and wonder as I perform one amazing trick after another. You'll definitely get your $1's worth at my show."
Can we do the job in that timescale? Our project manager, he say yes!
Nodding flying pigs, intended for the back of the car. I just had to have one.
SpirosK is the wonderful photographer for this henna project, and Danai Gourd the marvellous model. We shot in an abandoned hotel in the mountains north of Athens, Greece. The hotel was really moody, surreal, post-apocalyptic fairy in a mad maxish setting. This was one of the most fun projects I have worked on with a great crew - assistants, make up artists, everyone gave 110% of their energy to do this.
Henna was a challenge for me, not my normal style. Tried to make it thorny, not too flowery, tribally, but not too tribal, and the raggedy faerie wings were accented with water color pencil.
The cast and crew are:
Spiros K. = Photographer
Kree Arvanitas = Henna artist
Danai Gourd = Model
Jennifer Rage = Makeup Artist
Magdalini = Artist Assistant
Anastasia = Model Assistant
