 <Blur Building> Expo 2002 Schweiz / Switzerland / Yverdon-les-Bains / Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Elizabeth Diller, Ricardo Scofidio (+ Tom Igoe)
"We also wanted to produce an anti-heroic architecture in the form of a special effect, an atmosphere." - Diller Scofidio
: Using steam as skin of the building.
 <Delete!> 2005 / Wien / Christoph Steinbrener & Rainer Dempf
: If they apply to the downtown in Seoul, they need much more yellow sheet since lots of buildings are covered by dizzy signs.
 <Stadtlounge St. Gallen> 2005 / St. Gallen / Carlos Martinez & Pipilotti Rist
: similar to the orange flag installation at the Central Park
 - fake sun
 <wahre landschaft-echte fehler>
real landscape - real mistake / 2004 / Bischofshofen / heri&salli, Heribert Wolfmayr, Josef Saller
