Look!: Painted Sidewalk

6-9-08rugcemmain.jpgWe were walking down 18th Street when we passed by this painted sidewalk. It's outside of a new restaurant (not yet opened) called Kasa. We know this isn't "high design," but we appreciate the effort. It definitely put a smile on our face, and it offered up a nice contrast to the grayscale and modern exterior that it's in front of.

That's a great little "welcome" mat! Since the design doesn't match the tile layout, I kind of wish it had a painted background for emphasis. Question: is it even legal to do this to a public sidewalk? I could imagine the city having a problem with this, although it seems charming and harmless to me.

I love that. Some things are better than high design and this is one of them. Thanks for posting. Put a smile on my face on an otherwise dreary Monday.

No kidding...these are the things that really make one smile.

makes me smile, the angry letter from the city (if any) would likely be hilarious.

Please remove your imaginary painted rug from the public sidewalk, thank you.
