Tucked away in a private woodland, the Big Green Bus brings a piece of the city to the Sussex countryside. The converted 1982 West Midlands metro bus now offers accommodations for six as well as a full kitchen, wet bath, and living area with a wood-burning stove. There’s no wifi or TV, but that’s part of the fun. The lounge is completely stocked with books and board games to keep you occupied. Outside the bus, there’s a second shower, wrap-around deck, fire pit, and wood-fire hot tub to take in the surrounding scenery.

Tianjin Binhai Library by MVRDV + Tianjin Urban Planning and Design Institute
MVRDV in collaboration with local architects TUPDI has completed the Tianjin Binhai Library, a 33,700m2 cultural centre featuring a luminous spherical auditorium around which floor-to-ceiling bookcases cascade. The undulating bookshelf is the building’s main spatial device, and is used both to frame the space and to create stairs, seating, the layered ceiling and even louvres on the façade. Tianjin Binhai Library was designed and built in a record-breaking time of only three years due to a tight schedule imposed by the local municipality. Next to many media rooms it offers space for 1,2 million books.
