Pop-up park and playground anyone?

This is an awesome new idea being implemented in Argentina. Transforming city streets into relaxing spots for the public, these portable pop-ud recreational spaces will benefit people in urban areas where parks are scarce or non-existent. The Plaza Movil — designed by Manuel Rapoport — will make use of Buenos Aires’ streets during weekends and [...]

Even more Fun Theory
