Want to bring life into your streets?
This project in Norway by Mad arkitekter used to be office buildings that replaced townhomes priorly.
The program is simple: Modern food market at street level & dwellings above to help bring round-the-clock life back into the streets.

The problem of too many cars isn’t just about the tailpipe. And altho EVs seemingly address that issue (or “move” it, depending on the electricity source), their increased weight, and the potential increase in size & distance driven (due to #JevonsParadox) make EVs “complicated.”

Dette er Nygaardsplassen i Fredrikstad. Ikke like stort, men ligner fremdeles og er ganske kult.
