reimagining the urban apartment block


Javier guided me in the direction of Ramenskoye in Russia. Ramenskoye is located 46 km (28.5 miles) southeast of Moscow. I don't know much about this initiative, but this website has many pictures of this very colorful place.

What to make of Ramenskoye? I am not sure. It would be very interesting to see what the residents of the area think. I imagine that the paintings would be a source of pride and a colorful counterpoint to the grey and snow that tend to dominate the Russian landscape.
