The Shower Tower In Germany

The London based studio rAndom International has created another experimental installation, Instant Structure for Schacht XII. It is installed at the Zollverein industrial complex in Land Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany. The structure features a rectangular frame where four huge curtains of water fall to the ground and cycles up to 30,000 liters of water each minute.

"It is a sensuous adventure: the sound of falling water, the humidity, the glimmering water walls in the sunlight. The sound of the resulting rain storm is intensely loud and a sensation of moisture lingers in the air," said the curators. "By bringing such large quantities of water into the controlled form of a building, rAndom International investigate if a structural purpose can wrought upon this otherwise chaotic element," they add. 

Creative Animal Sculptures Made From Scrap

Natsumi Tomita is a Japanese artist who created the exhibition, "The Small Forest" for a series of animals sculptures made from scrap materials. He was able create beautiful sculptures of animals from broken umbrella and bike parts to discarded cans and kitchen utensils.

"Each of these things, which we usually use everyday, once had a story, until they were thrown away. There are bicycles that were once ridden, broken dustpans, signboards from loan sharks, lost umbrellas. Every object had purpose and meaning before they were tossed away. Taking these things that I collect, I connect them and create new life from them. For this reason the animals that are born in this way are my children. I have given them each a name, and they all live together in the living room of my house" said the artist.

His artworks are displayed at the Galerie 412 until September 14, 2013. 

The Black & White Hotel In Singapore

The Club is a luxury hotel in Singapore that features only two colors, black and white.The hotel has a combination of traditional and modern design. It was designed by the Ministry of Design. The design director, Colin Seah, said "Searching to ground the hotel in the context of Singapore as well as the historically rich conservation area of Club Street and Ann Siang Hill, we drew its inspiration from 2 sources. The first is Singapore's colonial past, which we have made modern tongue-in-cheek references to through art installation like features such as an larger-than-life statue of Raffles with his head in the clouds as well as through some key furniture pieces and artifacts. The second inspiration was drawn from the area's popularity as a remittance center for turn of the century Chinese immigrants where hard earned money and wistful letters were sent back to the homeland. We have taken the memories of these exchanges and created features that hint of this legacy in the rooms of The Club, where the modern day nomad and the nomad of yesterday cross paths for a moment.”"

The hotel has 22 luxury rooms, a rooftop skybar and a tapas bar on the ground floor. It features undulating folds of fabric hanging from the ceiling and black illustrations of plants and trees.
