I came across this great photo on the beautiful blog three85
A bicycle shop in Altlandsberg, Germany advertises their goods with a wall of around 120 bikes mounted on the building’s exterior in lieu of a sign.
I like the idea, the graphic effect and the grandeur of it all.

I love this! Again a simple but very effective idea. I wonder what the stories are behind each bike!
This reminds me of when we lived in Zurich and they had the Cow Parade. A vegetarian restaurant we used to go to covered the front in grass and daisies and had a large cow sticking out of the wall. Looked fantastic.

Yes very simple but a great effect!
Thanks for the story about the cow sticking out of the wall…I can picture it very clearly.
