This is a holiday post!
And I may or may not be stealing this post from my other Blog: "Angie's Trekking the Globe." I'm feeling a bit Christmas-y these days, and I remembered this post that I wrote last year, when I spent some time in Italy in December.
I felt then, as I feel now, that Italians just innately know how to make things beautiful.
Like Christmas decorations. I've always thought they had a certain flair. In the cities, they always hang rows of lights above each street, and it's such a cool effect. In Torino, for instance, they have different lights designed by different artists, and each street has something different. Sometimes this results in things that look...a bit...perhaps...not so Christmasy, but certainly memorable.
Case in point:
I mean, what doesn't say "Merry Christmas" like naked people??
But last year, I saw something new.
They are now projecting lights onto buildings. But not just any lights. They're designed for the buildings so that the lights match the architecture. Like so:
That pretty much blew my mind.
I mean, how do they get it so perfect???
