"Because this is such an eye-catching structure, it will invite communication between strangers across the other side of the world. Chance meetings will happen between someone walking by in New York and someone walking by in Dublin.
"You’ll stop for a minute and say something, and there’s a connection that you would never otherwise have. It is life-size, so you are at the same eye level as the person on the other side,” project manager Mark Quick told The Irish Times.
Some funding has been supplied by Dublin City Council and Galway Enterprise Board but a further €200,000 needs to be raised through the project's Kickstarter page to make Twin Spaces (designed by architest Cathal Curtin) a reality.
So far, €6,500 have been donated, with 27 days to go. Those who pledge €20 can get their name or a friends engraved on the structure and if you want to donate to this very cool idea, you can find all the details here.Explore more on these topics:
