Shitty Digger
Work in progress under the parrot tree. But that doesn’t change the parrots daily business. They continue to do what they do here since a long time. Does nobody check the database of trees used as toilets by flocks of parrots ? more…

Lamp fill
In front of the Palais de Justice small cobble stones are inserted in the pavement. You will find a line of these, along the roadside. In 2016 these squares were circles. Not stone but glass. They still contained the fittings of lamps, although they were clearly at the end of their lives, which is now […] more…
Bakken dance
New developments around the wooden boxes filled with gravel in the Haeckstraat. First the six boxes have shifted position, diminishing the space thy occupy. Next, see the picture above, one of them has disappeared. Also visible is that dragging the boxes around has worn of the marking on the street surface which indicated a no […] more…
Squashed bakken
After several crashes, these wooden boxes filled with stones that served as a barrier against cars were dismantled. Some have been emptied, they are waiting to be trashed. (Picture october 2018) more…
Wood cobbles
Pave ways with missing cobblestones are really annoying. On the start of the Rue des Echevins, on the square, in front of nr. 7, the gaps have been filled with wooden planks that are cut to size. No more wobbely walking, or twisted ankles. more…

Renewed corner
Rue de Flandre 66, Brussels Comparing the facade of this address to what it looked like ten years ago it is quite striking how little of it still remains. Not only has the window that got smashed time and again being replaced, so has the occupation of the shop, the company running the parking house […] more…
Blue EU concrete barriers
Rue Belliard, 1000 Brussels Concrete barriers have been placed along the Belliard street, to separate cars from pedestrians, cyclists, office buildings. I presume this is done in the spirit of wanting to prevent for deliberate attacks using the car as a weapon. Useless to say that cars are killing machine anyway, which is very noticeable […] more…
Unscootered stand
Recently these two bikes have appeared, parked in a somewhat a-typical manner, in the Rue Pierre Victor Jacobs, Molenbeek. Often, bikes that are left outside in the street in the city are chained to something solid, a sign pole, a rain tube, to protect them from being displaced or stolen, but here they are parked […] more…

***se steenweg / chausee de ***
Junction Rue Piers / Merchtsemse Steenweg Adaptive signage; the Gentse Steenweg seems to be just one of many options. Stick another vinyl over the current name and many indications are possible. more…
Circular traces
Rue du Marche au Charbon, Brussels 1000 A subtle trace drawn on the pavement near bar Au Soleil. Brussels street=cleaning cars have two spinning brooms at the front. They gather dirt between them which is then sucked into the reservoir of the car. Many streets which are not accessible for cars are shut of by […] more…
Stick it up
A common problem: how to exit ones driveway without hitting those pesky big stones which are protecting the corners of your garden? A simple solution: install a marker that is high enough to be seen from inside the car. This one on Avenue Charles Woeste is elegant and efficient at the same time. Box with […] more…
Box with visibility pole
Rue Léopold 1, Laeken At the edge of a parking place, this box with sprouting seeds has been placed. Because it is so low, car drivers will not see it; the solution here is the pin with reflector strips and blingy textiles that is stuck in the corner of the box. Stick it up more…
Bed gate garden
New extensions have been built to the earlier photographed tree protection that was erected with the help of an old bed on Rue Vandenbogaerde. It started by posing a modest orange traffic cone and has little by little grown into a success full green spot. The addition of several traffic signs is clearly marking where […] more…

Putting the L in nouvel
Gare du Nord, 1000 Brussels Renovation of the main hall is in full progress. Temporary signage is pointing travelers the way to the new entrance. An unfortunate translation mistake needed to be corrected on all posters. It became an adventure in individual letter placing and spacing. more…
