Is Paris Getting a Bouncy Castle?

OK, so it’s not a bouncy castle per se – it’s more like a design for a trampoline bridge. That doesn’t stop it from being perhaps one the better ideas the French have come up with. I mean the most consistent perhaps clichéd travel advice you’ll get when visiting Paris is to walk pass all the bridges. 

And it’s completely true…you should. But now it’s gonna be like “Don’t forget to cross the trampoline bridge.” Or at least that’s what the architects at Atelier Zundel Cristea imagine for the future  - a series of three inflatable trampolines that would enable you to cross the Seine in what would no doubt bring hordes more tourists piling out of Charles de Gaulle just to experience.

Probably won’t happen, but dang those cool Persians…a freaking trampoline bridge?! Come on!!

In Making Dystopia, distinguished architectural historian James Stevens Curl tells the story of the advent of architectural Modernism in the aftermath of the First World War, its protagonists, and its astonishing, almost global acceptance after 1945. He argues forcefully that the triumph of architectural Modernism in the second half of the twentieth century led to massive destruction, the creation of alien urban landscapes, and a huge waste of resources. Moreover, the coming of Modernism was not an inevitable, seamless evolution, as many have insisted, but a massive, unparalled disruption that demanded a clean slate and the elimination of all ornament, decoration, and choice.
