No more concrete, pubs open til 2am and annual Pooh Stick races from Oxford to Thamesmead...

They were just a few of Oxford residents' thoughts on how to improve the city on display at the Museum of Modern Art, in Pembroke Street.

The mass brainstorm formed part of an exhibition called Oxford 2015, designed to raise public awareness of existing plans for the city and to provide a platform for people to voice their opinions.

The exhibition placed displays of real schemes alongside the visions of schoolchildren, artists, architects and members of the public.

Museum director Andrew Nairne said: "People from all parts of Oxfordshire have come along and contributed to the exhibition.

"We see the whole project as about encouraging a greater awareness and raising the level of aspirations around the county."

One of the highlights of the exhibition was a series of 12 talking head-style interviews with Oxford residents from a mixture of ages, backgrounds, sexes and professions.

The idea is the brainchild of film-maker Martin Wilkinson who wanted to illustrate the city's contrasts.

Martin said: "Beyond the local press, Oxford means just the picture postcard image of the university so I wanted to bring in other areas." The ideas of young people also formed a big part of the exhibition. Local artist Kate Beinhart took pupils from Cheney School in Headington on a 'drift' walk around Oxford city centre where they wandered off in their own directions instead of following a prescribed route.

She then asked them to come up with ideas for Oxford's buildings of the future.

The results included a multi-coloured mosque, a house made entirely of glass and a black and white zebra-inspired new look for Christ's Church.

Kate said: "I wanted the children to really think about the way they look at cities and buildings."

Oxford Brookes architecture students also came up with some weird and wonderful designs for different areas of the city.

One idea was the creation of a massive Las Vegas-style casino off Botley Road, while Bleau Becquart's mind-boggling idea to suspend a pool of water in translucent plastic bags above Gloucester Green coach station also raised a few eyebrows.
