The engineering of flags across a street, tensioned between chimneys by volunteers with ladders.
Buntingarchitecture spans the road at party height and sags with the weather's opinion. Its rigging is improvised, load-tested by pigeons, and taken down in rain. The street looks briefly like a festival site, and the bunting returns to the same loft until the next committee.
Etym. — bunting + architecture — the structural engineering of party flags.
Rel. — culdesacider
