A downtown alley might not be the first place you would look for
the makings of a five-star resort, but ThunderEgg Alley is exactly
that.
Informed by the abundant waste of our consumer-driven economy, ThunderEgg
Alley exploits the natural landscape of Toronto's refuse, transforming
the material excretions of everyday life into abstract mechanisms
of luxury. Visitors will have the unique opportunity to indulge
in a dumpster diver's paradise, complete with a spa, tanning salon
and cardboard box boutique.
In association with Zimmerman Freshmart.
