I love the staircases from around the world that are posted at Catraca Livre. Wish I could remember where I got this link. Andrew Sullivan? Twitter? This Is Colossal? It’s been a while since I saw it.
I picked the staircase with the koi fish to show you, but there are 16 other amazing staircases at the site. The website is based in Brazil and run by Gilberto Dimenstein. I can’t read the Portuguese. If you can, let me know what it says?
“Muitas pessoas fazem o possível para fugir do esforço de subir alguns degraus. Mas para alguns artistas de rua, elas são fontes de inspiração para suas criações. O site BoredPanda listou 17 escadas ao redor do mundo que são verdadeiras obras de artes a céu aberto.”
OK. I guess the pictures originated at Bored Panda, a site we blogged about once before. You should check that, too.
