If those two words simply wouldn't have existed it would have saved a lot of space on these weblogs. But guys like Zenza keep on repeating it. This exhibition is just good however you like to call it. Especially the remote control car with the plant in it is nice!

It is good that there are people /designers/creative minds who are not concerned that the thing they are making is not pretty... b Yes Zenza!
