The Bleu House in Rotterdam

This house in Rotterdam was scheduled to be demolished before the local government hired a firm to “spruce it up” a bit to temporarily keep the house standing. All they did was add 2 microns of blue paint to the house and it transformed this tiny part of Rotterdam. This house is especially important for me because it shows how magnificent an effect such a miniscule change can have. The tiny amount of paint that was added to the house has reverberated throughout the community, a place that was before overlooked entirely. Since these photographs were taken however, unfortunately the building has been demolished due to its age.
