Above and below stairs at the Southbank



Underneath Queen Elizabeth Hall the graffitti certainly cheers up the concrete. I particularly like the reflection which adds colour to the grey floor.
  


Whilst on the roof there is a newly planted garden. It is so peaceful and quiet up here  away from the crowds below.

  1. Hi There, Whether you are above or below---there will be a smile on your face. Right???? Awesome. I love that kind of graffiti that brings color and joy to a drab area... AND---that garden is terrific. Thanks for sharing.

    Have a great weekend.
    Hugs,
    Betsy

  2. Beautiful! I love the flowers, and the graffiti is actually rather cheerful... how did they manage that? :-)

  5. Hi there - I tend to approve of urban art - although the mindless 'tags' annoy me at times. But on the other hand, what do the planners who design such places expect to happen? Many of these concrete palaces have all the life and interest of a steel pan when they are new!

    Cheers - Stewart M.

    PS: if you are planning to visit Victoria on your Australia trip I'd be glad to offer a few hints and tips of places to see. SM
