Just when you think you've seen everything up pops a hotel made of trash? In Rome Corona (yes the beer company) has sponsored the building of the world's first hotel made from scattered trash. The project, called Save the Beach, was started to save Europe's beaches from becoming wastelands due to the enormous amounts of garbage filling the sands. Supported by such famous names as Jade Jagger and Helena Christensen (who will be staying at the hotel and blogging her experience) Save the Beach aims to clean up and save one beach every year. (The beach is chosen by user submissions and votes on the site.
I actually think this is a not a bad way to go getting help to clean up the beaches around the world (Hint - EXPAND THE PROJECT SCOPE!). But I don't know yet about making my living accommodations out of it. Living in NYC is hard enough............
