Urban Cozies in Context

Examining Cozies at Confederation Park
The Enchanted Forest, Confederation Park

Rather than show photos of cozies all by their lonesome, we thought we’d show more photos of urban cozies in their social context:

Installing Cozies @ Parc Jacques-Cartier
Conversing about urban cozy installation, Parc Jacques-Cartier

Each time we’ve been physically onsite to install or visit both parks, it’s been definitely interesting to see how people react to the covered trees, lampposts and benches, and the ensuing dialogue.

Many visitors comment that they love that the idea of covered trees at Winterlude this year. Some people “aren’t too sure about it” (that’s a quote we heard a couple nights ago). Some just see it as part of the winter decor.

What is this all about?

For the most part, the installation piques the curiosity of visitors who want an explanation of what these “mysterious coverings” are all about. Some spot the S&N tags attached to several urban cozies which explains they are part of the “2010 Winterlude Urban Cozy Project”.

Looking forward to more dialogue about the Project, online and on-site at both Parks this weekend.
