They look nice, but I don;t think they’d serve any other purpose.
Straight lines look symmetrical and appear in sync with other lines around.
I think it looks great. And it certainly makes for a more interesting environment. Straight lines aren’t natural anyway. The true zebra lines adds a bit of art beauty to the man-made landscape of the city.
that’s awesome.. i am sending this link to the local council. practical art makes life that little bit nicer!
where is that, i like that picture it is one of those things that makes my morning ready for the day
yeah, where is that???
Zebras are my favorite animals. I would love to know where that is.
where is the art its fab i’d love it to be where i live!
this is really awesome!
i wish that people could bring more art into out world!
since it’s called the zebra.!
and the zebra’s in my neigboorhood are colored yellow.
so its really fake too!
but i guess the whole slanted lines take up to much time and the white pant wears off sooner.
its a really interesting thought though!
