"Welcome to Art of the Arcade, a site dedicated to showcasing the lost graphic design and illustration work from the golden era of video gaming. Here at Art of the Arcade, we try to show the work in a new light, and remove it from its usual surroundings to help show what some may consider a very insignificant part of a classic video game. We feel its important to showcase this amazing work and give exposure to the forgotten graphic designers and illustrators that helped shape a billion dollar industry."
Came across this by pure chance today, and kept thinking about it. Beautiful, elegant and simple. By Henning Larsen Architects.
"Batumi Aquarium takes inspiration from the distinctive shingle of Batumi beach, formed over thousands of years by ocean currents. The building will be located in the Georgian coastal town of Batumi and stands as an iconic rock formation - visible from both land and sea. Made up of four self-supporting exhibition areas, each stone represents a unique marine biotope; Mediterranean, Black Sea/Red Sea, the Aegean and the Indian Ocean."
I love this idea. It's very, very basic mobile which comes preprogrammed with up to 12 numbers. Those are the only numbers you can call, and call is all you can do (you can receive calls to, of course).
Great for kids, old people, travelling, festivals, or just as an emergency back-up.
