Their futuristic proposal is a reuse concept for Melbourne’s ill-fated Southern Star Observation Wheel. Under their vision, the currently defunct Wheel is converted into a tram depot for flying steam powered trams. And if you remember, the future is of cause, where we all live and travel in the sky ; )

Flying Tram Depot

Their work questions in the most fun way, how to efficiently adapt, reuse and re-function outdated infrastructure.  Their website features the images in super high res so you can zoom around their proposal. Check it out Here.
