"become the amazing butterfly that you're meant to be, heh heh heh"

LOL. I randomly came across this movie while browsing trailers on iTunes. I flipped out big time when it came to the GEOCACHING part! GEOCACHING! IN A MOVIE! Could I get nerdier?

Looks just about good enough for a semi-legal download :)

The Fab Lab House

Now THIS is what I call sustainability! The Fab Lab House produces three times the energy it uses. AND the design is through the roof amazing.

The organic shape really sets this home apart from other "green homes" which sometimes can end up looking like a plywood box. The sloping roof and curved solar panels are SO ingenious! They can keep gathering energy even when the sun isn't directly above the structure.

Based in Madrid, the Fab House was developed by the Institute of Advanced Architecture of Catalonia.

Check out their website here. And oh yea, this thing is completely PRE-FAB!

colour my world with the chaos of trouble

You just have to watch this video! Amazing cinematography and concept!

What a difference a little (or a lot) of colour makes in urban spaces! Adding colour immediately changes the way people feel in an environment- and it's such a simple and inexpensive medium to work with.

Here's a real life example:
