Students In Germany Transformed This Boring Tower Into Beautiful Artwork. Simply Stunning.

We pass by so many boring, ordinary, and thoroughly uninteresting landmarks in our everyday life. Most of us tune them out, but a group of students in Germany transformed this dull electric tower in their town into an undeniably beautiful work of art. There’s no ignoring this as you ride along the road. The students cut out vibrant pieces of Acrylglas and affixed them all along the tower to create a collage of gorgeous stained glass. The project, titled Leuchtturm (“Lighthouse”), was completed in 2010 at the Klasse Löbbert and it has been brightening up the small town road in Hattingen, Germany ever since. Take a look!

(H/T: Colossal) It’s so simple, but it completely changes your perspective. Feeling inspired? Share with your friends below and see if they wanna tackle any urban artwork projects in your neighborhood!

http://twitter.com/#!/JGreenDC/status/486945719258198016

This morning, Twitchy introduced you the tale of the “Kill Kendall Jones” Facebook page:

Facebook has standards. And 19-year-old Kendall Jones’ searching pictures break those requirements, a spokesperson for myspace and facebook informed Mashable … When Juneau Empire reporter Matt Woolbright spotted the “Kill Kendall Jones” Twitter page, he reported it as “harassment” and a “credible threat of physical violence.” But as Woolbright had been informed, the web page doesn’t break Facebook’s criteria.

Since our tale showed up, stories in regards to the “Kill Kendall Jones” web page have actually made an appearance in the Washington Times, The Examiner, and countless other websites. Yet the incendiary Facebook page continues to be up.
