I came across this and loved the minimalist aesthetic. And i love that they're freely available and an effective way to reuse historical images.

the lawn less so however ;)

Ah! While browsing for pictures for the banner I stumbled upon this japanese building which vibes very much with solarpunk, so here you go!

I ended up doing a collage of things :P

I'm not sure if the writing is not readable enough, since in the icon it displays too small and the colours are not that distinguisable. If you have any other opinions on it I can remake parts or change stuff if you let me know.

Hopefully the community is a bit more colorful now hehe. Cheers! :)

Hey everyone!

I was looking for an icon for this community (since it is kind of sad without it (as is my profile rn)) but I am quite unsure what to look for, since I want something other than drawings, since we have /c/art for that. So I am asking you about it, a bit of democracy never hurt anyone, right? Ignores the anarchists yelling in the back.

So, what do you feel would be a faithful representation of solarpunk aeshetics? Some wearable gear? Gardens in buildings? A backtard garden? A plant-friendly sculpture?

Leave your ideas (or links to pictures if you have them) in the comments.

Thank you for your participation :D

Heya! I saw both this community and /c/art for adoption and decided to take both their moderation roles, since they seems like sister communities to me :). Hopefully you'll see me around more often and we can make the artsy part of slrpnk.net shine :D

If you're curious about me, I'm a refugee from Reddit and, like many of us, I don't want to look back. I have always wanted to moderate a community, but Reddit seemed so big and overwhelming that never took up the challenge (so please, be gentle with me X$). I've also been a solarpunker since before I knew the term and I was really glad to find a community with matching interests.

Any other questions you might have about me or anything else, write them down in the comments. Now I'm going to copy-paste this into /c/art bc I'm a bit lazy, hehe.

Cheers to you all, and very glad to be working for you! Phoe.
