SEEDS

Thinking about ways we can transform our relationship to space. A few days ago I chanced upon a radio interview with Veronica Valk, an architect/urban designer from Estonia. Her ideas highlight the relationship between space and the human psyche and her 'Seeds in the shoes project' is a simple yet beautiful idea based on this. About half the population of the Estonian Capital suffer from SAD (seasonally adjusted disorder) and Veronica's 'Seeds' project playfully seeks to brighten the mood. Think of this - shoes that people walk in releasing seeds as they travel through urban spaces.
