#29 Monday.12.21.2009 Confusing Pictograph Architecture Anyone? I don't get this for so many different reasons. Firstly, I don't know why it is being built at the end of December when it's -9°C and there is a foot of snow on the ground. Secondly, I don't know why it has images on it to begin with. Thirdly, I don't understand how this got past the initial design phase to be built in this area of Stockholm. Lastly, I cannot figure out how the "story" on the building ends.Let's go through this step by step starting at the top: 1) The guy gives the girl a star. 2) They fall in love sitting down. 3) They dance...and stuff... 4) She is preganant. 5) ??? We have a theory here at the office that he is taking care of the baby while she watches. From a bench, or toilet. We aren't really sure. Or that he is baking bread. Or packing his bags to go. Or making a sandwich and that she is waiting for the bus. I guess someone out there knows. I just want to know why? If you are wondering where you can view this attraction in person, it is on Lugnets Allé in Hammarby Sjöstad south of Stockholm - or in the south of Stockholm depending on your politics.
