Eneropa

And the interesting (wacky/clever/could that work?) ideas are coming thick and fast at the moment - and it's another Euro architect who has caught my eye.

The gruniad reports that maverick architect Rem Koolhaas has wiped out a couple of millennia of history and re-drawn the national boundaries of Europe along sustainable energy lines. The article is nicely Utopian and as As Reinier de Graaf, the partner in charge of the proposal, says (I suspect with his tongue in his cheek): "Megalomania is a standard part of our repertoire."
The graphics make tasty food for thought.
