A team of professionals and creative amateurs spent the past week with scissors and glue building a cardboard city at a factory in Moscow.
Very cool! I love the concept of this contest. :)
Too bad I can't upload photos. I build model cars from cardboard.
How cool is that! What a great contest. They say the best gift for children is a big cardboard appliance box, like the ones washing machines come in. Instant fort! Of course, here at home we are also seeing other cities made of cardboard, usually on the edge of real towns and full of people who got foreclosed out of their other houses. Nice to see cardboard being used for a happier occasion.
