Designers’ Vision: Childlike London Landmarks
We have become accustomed to the appearance of the great monuments of the London Landmarks. London is blessed with many great landmarks, Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, the Eye, the Bridge, and many, many more. Have you ever wondered how you can adjust them? Probably not, because it would take a lot of creativity and imagination and even the courage to do so. I mean, they already look perfect …
But such a challenge is a piece of cake for a child. And so, the British housebuilder Barratt Homes asked some children to try to reimagine these famous landmarks according to their taste. And they departed. Later, they asked some digital artists to recreate their drawings in 3D so that the whole world would know what they would look like in reality. See for yourself!
Woods Big Ben
Big Ben was reimagined by Daisy, aged 11, and has a wooden building giving it a naturalistic finish. These hanging baskets, which look very much like beehives, also serve as well-to-do pods where tourists and city workers can sit, relax and watch the sights of London. Daisy also featured an embroidered dragonfly sculpture sitting just below the clock, as well as smaller bee sculptures scattered throughout helping to bring more of the woodland nature feel. The finishing touches around the base include hanging ivy and a few crystals.
Tower Bridge Theme Park
Our next re-imagining of London Landmark was edited by Navneet, a 7-year-old who turned Tower Bridge into a full-fledged amusement park. Excited fans would be glad to know that it now has a roller coaster, water slides, a running track and a giant jumping castle. If quiet swimming sounds more like your street, however, Navneet has also incorporated an endless swimming pool that will surely offer some unique views of the skyline of London. For all the visiting characters, there are also 2 helipads in the shape of pizza slices that sit above each of the towers.
The Star London Eye
Designed by 8-year-old Syeda, this reimagined version of the London Eye gives up the round shape and instead uses a visually striking star. With neon lights everywhere, this new addition to London’s skyline will surely brighten the city all year round, and will certainly be a huge hit during the festive months. And to remember a ride, Syeda’s design also features several traditional square cars where visitors can fly.
The Spooky Breaking Coaster
Our last landmark reimagined is from Ayan, 6, who turned The Breach into a haunted roller coaster. Using the height of the building to his advantage, Ayan’s created a white-finish ride that extends the entire length of the building. Ghosts and vampires also patrol the tracks, while the orange and green colors add to the Halloween theme.

Breathtaking Villa That Opens Its Windows To New Zealand’s Serene Landscape

Large and luxurious, Waiora is a sustainable development set on a plot that boasts stunning views over Lake Wakatipu in Queenstown, New Zealand. The luxurious villa design has massive windows that welcome in the stunning mountain panorama, and fill the interior with natural light. Upon completion in 2023, the home layout includes four large bedroom sets, a spacious open plan living space with dining, kitchen and lounges, and a huge deck that soaks up the serenity of the surrounding landscape. Here is a focus on wellness, with an infrared sauna, an infinity pool and a home gym for daily exercise. An environmental room and an enviable wine cellar promote relaxation and play.
The residence takes on one of only eleven private plots within the exclusive Forestlines gateway community. The green landscape rushes up to meet the front entrance of the home, creating a soft and natural border.
Waiora is the Maori word for health, solidity and healing waters. This beautiful name is lovingly displayed in beautiful golden letters on the front door, illuminated by an understated modern wall light.
Upon entering the exquisite home, an impossibly perfect view makes for a wonderful first effect. The clear blue waters of Lake Wakatipu evoke calm, while Cecil Peak and the Remarkable Mountains awaken fear and wonder.
This exceptional home boasts a fabulous lounge with stunning views. The mountain panorama negates the need for any interior color of recreational decoration. The sight is more than enough to please and keep an eye on.
Soft gray modern sofas and a large rug define the living room inside the airy open plan living space. An elegant modern coffee table forms a central anchor. A contemporary bench seat is lowered across the window wall so as not to interrupt the view.
A modern fireplace shakes atmospherically on one side of the living room, providing a warm and comfortable glow when looking at the cold, snowy mountain peaks.
The outdoor dining area surpasses the atmosphere of any top restaurant. Modern outdoor chairs seat eight people at a large yet visually light dining table.
Comfortable outdoor sofas are arranged on the terrace, which is definitely the main place to spend the hours.
The kitchen cabinets contrast sharply with the rest of the lightweight living room, creating a dramatic effect. Four kitchen stools line the edge of a massive kitchen island, interrupting its dark finish with moments of light wood tone. Modern linear hanging light draws brightly along the entire length of the dining island, fully illuminating its vast counter.
The kitchen island is located so that the chef can appreciate their location as they go around preparing food for the family.
The mountain-front exterior of the home is almost entirely glass to drink in the natural beauty.
The luxurious bedroom design is the material of dreams. A ceiling-mounted fireplace descends in front of vast double-glazed windows, where it warms the foot of the bed. A living room is located on the opposite side of the room to look at the environment.
… And the bathtub puts you right at the top of the mountain.
The master bedroom suite has its own terrace area to connect it with the happy surroundings.
A larger courtyard runs next to the endless pool. Four outdoor chairs and a modern fireplace form a welcoming social area where conversations and laughter can extend far into the night.
The courtyard and swimming pool are privately hidden in the dive of the sloping terrain, which surrounds them with abundant shrubs, ground cover and established trees.
The waters of the endless pool ripple outward toward Lake Wakatipu and the nearby mountain systems.
Beautiful Queenstown is a destination for adventure and action. Among the exciting scenery are world-famous vineyards, golf courses, walking and hiking trails, horseback riding and scenic bike trails. Shopping, shopping, and great food and wine are a local treat. River floating, jet boating, canyoning, bungy jumping, skydiving and skiing from winter to spring will excite the wild at heart.
The modern home exterior looks out over 13,000 square feet of land at the front of the development, where it gets completely unobstructed views. An integrated solar system and Tesla Power wall wiring the home for an environmentally responsible lifestyle. Intelligent home technology and underfloor heating offer optimum comfort and convenience to enhance daily life.
The property is just an eight-minute drive from central Queenstown, or a twenty-minute drive from Queenstown International Airport. There is generous parking for up to six cars. A large home office offers a luxurious environment for remote work.
Density of plant life makes the home feel safe isolated and away from the problems of the world. The holistic environment promotes mental and physical well-being.
Even the roof of the home is overshadowed by the green beauty of nature. The green roof blends harmoniously into the hill, softening the presence of the linear architecture.
The plant-covered roof creates the impression that the house has been standing here for a long time, slowly becoming one with the ground.
