Flying Carpet

Great idea:

This project consists of an aerial view of the Sacramento River that is woven into a carpet for the floor of a pedestrian bridge connecting the terminal to the parking garage. This image represents approximately 50 miles of the Sacramento River starting just outside of Colusa, California and ending about 6 miles south of Chico.

This is a beautiful way to connect people with the beauty of nature in a manner and location they don’t expect. I wonder if this was expensive or really hard to do? I have seen architectural magazines with advertisements for putting your own photographs onto laminated (“formica”) countertops. And I think you can have your own wallpaper made. So this completes the interior design customization palette.
Of course, better to just get yourself outside, but still.
