Andrew Chase works with painstaking detail to create his remarkable steampunk sculptures — an impressive collection of animal-inspired artworks made from reclaimed steel sheets, car parts, industrial equipment, and more. Each sculpture takes Chase between 80 and 120 hours to complete, and they can be adjusted into different postions. His cheetah sculpture, seen above, has been sculpted from electrical insulation fittings, parts of a car transmission, and another 20 pieces of steel. Surprisingly, it only weights about 40 pounds!

Mobility for Tomorrow (Mo) is a new transportation sharing system that is helping to make Munich a better place to live. Mo subscribers are offered a bevy of green transportation options through a single card, allowing them to rent bikes, cargobikes, ebikes and cars, while also giving them access to public transportation. Mo also pays its users to be green. Just choose an eco-friendly mode of transport and you can collect momiles — the more momiles you have, the lower your Mo bill will be! Mo is a joint project by design firm LUNAR Europe, environmental organization Green City e.V. and the University of Wuppertal. Together the interdisciplinary team worked on how to make a difference in cities by changing the mobility paradigm of large urban areas.
