London 2012 organizers last week published artists' impressions of how some of the yet-to-be-erected temporary facilities will look once the 'greatest show on earth' hits town next year.

Never mind the fact that British summers can be damp（潮湿的） and drizzly⁴（下毛毛雨的） -- center court at Wimbledon has a roof for a good reason -- and forget dire⁵ warnings of airport-style security and transport congestion⁶（拥挤，充血） .

The 'overlay' vision, as organizers move into a new phase of the preparations with the '500 days to go' mark coming up next month, is strawberries and cream, picnics in the park, street parties and long, lazy summer evenings outdoors.

"We started this process two years ago and we looked at the festival nature of things," said John Barrow, a senior principal for architects and venue designers Populous⁷.

"We looked at the Festival of Britain in 1951 and explored the delight in the innovation post-war...we also looked at the legacy⁸ this brought.

"We then explored the quintessential（精髓的） aspects of what makes a London event...and looking at something like Wimbledon we think that atmosphere of informality, laced with fun and festival, is really something we want to inject into London 2012," added Barrow.

"It does come down to（归根结底） the strawberries and cream and the long summer nights. We are trying to really create that type of atmosphere, albeit⁹（虽然，即使） on a much bigger scale."
