A Floating Pool In New York
+ Pool is an initiative by a group of architects and designers to build a floating pool in the rivers of New York City… and they need your help. The project was launched with the ambition to improve the use of the city’s natural resources by providing a clean and safe way for the public to swim in New York’s waters. This site is the culmination of Concept Design for + Pool and they are looking to build a team of interested organizations and professionals to continue the development of the project into a buildable proposal.
Their next step is to partner with local cultural, developmental and environmental groups to raise public and private interest, identify civic potential and approach the municipality, while working with engineers, planners and specialists to refine the social and ecological performance of + Pool.

Last week, they went all out and dropped hundreds of subversively branded products on the shelves of New York's delis and supermarkets.

Two years ago, the City of New York's Department of Health and Mental Hygiene,
unveiled the city's first official condom on valentine's day. the original design features the letters 'NYC CONDOM' in the iconic style of the city's subway-line logos.
To keep things interesting, the city is giving new york city dwellers the chance to promote safer sex throughout the city. They're asking New Yorkers to design a special edition wrapper for NYC's iconic prophylactic. The contest is open to any New York City resident 17 and older. The winning design will grace condom packages in fall of 2010 and could also appear in social marketing campaigns.

New York City And Paris Map Cuts
A cut out map of the entire cities of New York and Paris.
Insane! That definitely required a great deal of patience and time, so its no surprise that both maps are one-of-a-kind. The NYC one is sold for $550 while the Paris one is for $250.
