A restaurant within an Art installation
A Hong Kong architecture studio has placed a restaurant within the jaw-dropping interiors of the Mile City brick art installation.The layout of the bar, and even the chairs and tables ebb and flow in response to the curves and meanderings of the structure and the unique and eye-catching openings in the roof.The building lacks even a single steel reinforcement or nail, and is built solely of local red bricks.Every view, every moment in the space is an interactive artwork, buffeting the senses, forming a wonderful symphony with the restaurant, enigmatically named 50% Cloud Artists Lounge

A Pay It Forward Wall
All coffee shops should consider this idea. I forgot my purse and the cashier said I could use one of the slips on this wall. Many of the slips are for local hospital staff and I chose a more general one. Of course I posted one the next day with the amount I had taken however there was no obligation to do that. This is a simple, clever way to recognise people in need, including someone who is just forgetful!

Paddock to Plate, with a difference
What happens to the food before it hits our plate, matters. Before its even in the hands of the chef at our favourite restaurant.The taste of that favourite cut of meat depends on more than how we cook it, though that's important too. It depends on how it was raised, cared for, fed, and killed. Inspired to reduce the stress animals experience, and address consumers interest in animal welfare, Provenir is changing the way meat is processed. Through their revolutionary on-farm processing with their mobile abbatoir Provenir ensures a transparent supply chain with animal welfare at its heart.
