Let me first start out by saying I surf the web. A lot. As in, if I could get paid for just looking at web pages, I would be a billionaire. (Feel free to send web surfing job offers, large wheel barrows of money, or cashiers checks my way) Ok, that being said, I also love really cool stuff. The amount of cool stuff I come across when Im just browsing sites is amazing. So, I’m gonna share some of those with you here. Don’t be surprised to see these things pop up here occasionally, or even more often than not.
So, on with the show.
A few days ago, I came across a site called WebEcoist.com that featured a Forest in a Box. I know what youre thinking: How did they fit the whole forest in there? Is it a pile of wood in a shipping container? Is this something we can market to the Beaver community? How would they pay for it? And what does it look like?
I can easily answer the last question with a few photos (courtesy of Webecoist.com)
Now you may notice that the trees all look eerily similar. They use magical smoke and mirrors (ok, the article says just regular mirrors) placed in a special way to reflect the one tree all over the place. And to prove that I’m really not making this up, heres what it looks like from the outside.
So take a look at the article here for more information about how this was done. And who to beg to get one of these installed outside your office building. Imagine getting away to the forest on your lunch break!
And as always, leave some feedback in the comments.
