 Well that will take some time here in Almere Poort but at least the architect made an attempt.

or you'll stumble across the Signs.Whether it helps is point 2 . 

Part of the open water sewage treatment of the zero energy houses in the district Oosterwold Almere and you indeed smell nothing. 

Seen from the other side. One for Skywatch Friday here.

Just ready. Eco-zero housing from yesterdays post in the polder. With their helofyte filtering for sewage treatment, advanced heat pumps and sun panels, extra isolation and special glass looks that there is no money left for a bit more architecture but I can understand that. I am only sorry to say that architecture in these houses not played any part of an ecological solution while it is possible. One for Weekend Reflections here.

One for Signs, Signs here.

Didn't know that we had such an Scandinavian oriented area in Almere called "de Buitenkans".

It is also very eco-friendly.

And started 11 years ago. One for Our World Tuesday here.

The organizers of the festival asked amsterdam primary schools to make some alternative christmas trees with their pupils.

The emphasis should be on reuse of material.

and on light of course.

So in the garden of the hermitage museum you find a lot of these trees.
