Vertical Garden Lives on Building's Wall

That garden was installed on the exterior of a new children's library in San Vicente de Raspeig, Sapin.
It uses cubic containers filled with substrate felt confined between two metal grids, one outdoor and one indoor. Containers are accessible from corridors located in the rear, where they can be replaced. The irrigation is possible by a metal structure built upon the deposit of concrete.
A lot of different types of flowers and herbs fill in the top layers of the garden. There is also a suspended scaffold in front that allows for pruning and replacing specific species.

Nature Mill

Deposit food waste any time, any day - up to 120 lbs (55kg) per month. For best results, cut items into small pieces. Items remain in the upper chamber under optimal composting conditions: mixing, air flow, heat, and moisture (see diagram). The energy released destroys odors, pathogens, and seed germination. It is later transferred through a trap door to the lower cure tray, where it continues to compost while you add fresh items to the upper chamber.

External Fridge

In China, because of their cold conditions, food is kept outside the window to preserve it, plus it frees up the kitchen space. This Chinese practice inspired Frenchman Nicolas Hubert to design the External Refrigerator. A fridge that hangs on the external wall of your home. The win-win situation here is that during winters the low temperatures help in conserving energy and keeping the fridge-items cold. And during summer, solar energy is harnessed via the solar panels, to power the fridge.

Pencil Sculpture !

I have seen many person creating art with pencil, but I have never saw someone create art in a pencil.
Interestingly, the carpenter uses three simple tools to build their works: a razor, sewing needles and knife. He still refuses to use a magnifying glass and never sold any of his works, which are given as gifts to friends. Dalton told the British website The Telegraph: Using sewing needle to dig holes or graffiti. Create lines of nowhere and slowly transform the graphite by hand. Dalton said he has more than 100 sculptures that were broken while he worked on them. He affectionately calls the collection cemetery.
