Bar code flag? Surely you must be joking, Mr. Koolhaas.

Rem Koolhaas did not talk to Europe leading intellectuals to come up with his T-Shirt look design of the new European flag, as the New York Time Article suggests. (Or if he actually did, poor Europe) He just looked at Paul Smith’s Mini while looking for inspiration for his prada project. (God bless Europe.) We all know that Paul Smith is the master of Shopping Environments. What more can I say?

(I think he did not look too much beyond anything...)
The flag is a bit like a horizontal skyscraper (sidescraper?) imagine what the flag for the UN would look like...
I have the feeling that if he thought about this one a bit more, he could come up with something better.
I still believe in this guy.
