Greenhouse in the city

Sorry, another one for the lucky residents of Melbourne - this abstract art is from the Greenhouse, best explained on their website:

"The Greenhouse, a self-sustaining event venue will rise from the ground of Federation Square at the end of October and for three months only will dish up degustation fare - in part dug from the garden of its own roof-top space - in a structure designed entirely from detritus. Tiny ‘taste-tubes’ (science laboratory ware is just some of the discard to double as dishes) will be served by vintage-dressed waiters wheeling ‘de-registered’ shopping trolleys around furniture made from found ‘stuff’."

It's only open until 29 January 2009 so check it out before time's up!

I wish I could visit Melbourne--that sounds so interesting. Love the reuse of the lightbulbs too.

Yeah, it's a pretty cool place. There should be more like it!
