The Traces of Traces

The trace of traces. Tokyo, 2006

These guides to paint the road markings were first laid down in November 2005 and are still visible 3 months later. Understanding the process of how something is designed and built can raise or lower its perceived value in the minds-eye of its users.

In what contexts is it desireable to include traces of processes? Or fake traces? Is there a point at which traces should disappear?
