Imagination ...the berg
While big and wealthy cities in many parts of
the world challenge the limits of possibility by
building gigantic hotels with fancy shapes, erecting
sky-high office towers or constructing hovering
philharmonic temples, Berlin sets up a decent
mountain. Its peak exceeds 1000 metres and is
covered with snow from September to March…
well this is imagination to build a Mountain... lets see if they do it.

Amazing Tree-Trunk Garden House
This is going to be amongst the most unique homes we’ve covered on HomeQN so far. The Tree trunk garden house in Hilversum, Netherlands is a house made from logs. The home is all carved from stack of logs which is truly an inspiration for those who think that the wooden houses are not appealing. Designed by Piet Hein Eek, the house is constructed at the edge of the woods. The house is fully ventilated with the sliding windows that are fitted into specially designed frames made from simple plastic and steel. Truly a remarkable architecture with the appealing look!

Tattoo Bicycle Helmet
Julien Bergignat – Tattoo Bicycle Helmet
French designer Julien Bergignat has taken inspiration from the Armadillo to create a lightweight, low cost, and recyclable bicycle helmet. The Tattoo helmet is entirely made up of polypropylene, and is able to transform from flat to three dimensional and back again in a matter of seconds. This design results in lower product shipping costs, and allows users to store their helmet in a backpack as apposed to carrying it around like a traditional helmet.
