Spain: Spanish advertise Madrid's sights on a bicycle

Kune Office, a Madrid-based architectural office, designed “Plazabike” in order to bring together important architectural elements of Madrid. The idea behind the project was to represent the identity of new urban development by using key elements: the corners of the streets. The purpose of the project was to make people think of how Spain's capital has grown. “Plazabike” was designed as a tricycle, incorporating a rack at the back, on which the "corners of the streets" were fixed (1.3 x 1.2 X 1.45 meters). This means that "Plazabike" is a kind of mobile architecture with storage space where folding chairs or tables can be stored for a city’s picnic.
