Volkswagen constructs alien-looking wonderland full of touchscreens, tech-goodies

Volkswagen constructs alien-looking wonderland full of touchscreens, tech-goodies

I know it looks crazy, but what you see up above is a photograph, not a conceptual render. That's "Level Green," a permanent installation in Volkswagen's Autostadt visitor center at their Wolfsburg, Germany factory built by Berlin-based J Mayer H architects. It's stuffed to the gills with auto parts displays and glossy vertical touchscreens where visitors can acquire more information about Volkswagen and the company's push to be green.

The installation was made mostly with sheets of wood composite and — appropriately — spray painted with car paint. Now if only it had the exterior of this Star Trek-looking building then we'd have a gen-u-wine sci-fi structure.

Check out more of Level Green in the gallery below.

There's nothing greener than building something to prove you are green. I'm going to build recycle logos out of Styrofoam to help get the word out.
