This Highrise Campsite<\/a> is by Dutch artist Willem de Haan<\/a>. Built from construction scaffolding, camping gear and string lights, it’s 11m (about 36′) tall and hosts 12 tents, in a minimal footprint.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

De Haan erected it next to a river in the Dutch countryside. It’s not a practical structure, but is more of a commentary: “Even in this seemingly peaceful landscape next to the IJssel river,” he writes, “the battle for scarce space is taking place.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It does remind me of The Stacks from Ready Player One.<\/p>\n
