When looking at our cities, we can always see some grey in them.

One of the most grey parts of the cities are surely electrical boxes, something you really don't like to see at street corners.
In some cases, urban writers use these electrical boxes for their writings, but not many of them are really nice to see, being mostly only writings.

In Stockholm it was recently decided to launch a contest for urban art on electrical boxes, to make them more beautiful to see and less boring.

The contest was created by Fortum, the third electrical company in Sweden, and everyone could join.

As a result, the contest received more than 1.000 proposals, and the 30 more voted were exposed to the public in an exhibition, for everyone to see.

It would be really very nice to see some more "artistic" electrical boxes also in our cities.

Black can be used to build very stylish packages for beverages (obviously classy beverages), but also for packaging pop corn, with origami style, that makes you wish to open the package and eat the pop corns as soon as you see the package.

Black is also very versatile, and thanks to it, you can mix glossy black parts in opaque packages to get writings, a mix that would be far less effective with any other color.

Around here cult television is almost a divinity. Our generation takes up everything from cult shows, exclusively watched in the original language: jokes, clothes, muscles and atmospheres and youngsters transport them into their boring life which would be even flatter without them. If you are on this site and you're reading something, you've probably noticed a subtle (obviously chronic) "dondraprerism" tendency.  continue...
