If A House Was Dreaming

Urbanscreen's field of activity is to put large-scale projections on urban surfaces. Founded in 2008, the company Urbanscreen from Germany develops these concepts and transfers them into a dialog between art and marketing.

One of their projects is called 'How it would be, if a house was dreaming,' and it's without a doubt one of the most amazing spectacles you've ever seen.

The Origin And Evolution Of Baby Carrots


Baby carrots first appeared in 1989. There are two types - real baby carrots, and manufactured baby carrots. A 'true' baby carrot is a carrot grown to the 'baby stage,' which is to say long before the root reaches its mature size.

They are also sometimes harvested simply as the result of crop thinning, but are also grown to this size as a specialty crop. Certain cultivars of carrots have been bred to be used at the 'baby' stage. One such cultivar is 'Amsterdam Forcing'. You will see them in the stores and are normally very expensive and displayed with some of the green showing to prove they are a real carrot.
