This is the amazing work of Paris-based artist, EVOL. His works include a form of ‘urban-sculpting’, whereby urban and natural landscapes or settings are used to create surreal words. In the “Rural City” (above and below), housing blocks have been ‘dug into the ground’. Initially, I though this was photoshop work, where multiple images are spliced together, but this isn’t the case:
These phenomenal urban bird houses look great, although I’m unsure as to the idea behind them. If your backyard birds would like a kitted-out box painted purple with satellite TV, then this would be just the ticket. The birdhouse below even has its own garden. If you take a look at the following pics, you’ll see how the bird house designs are used in urban environments:
This spectacular aerosol art by INO caught my attention. Back in Uni, I once studied graffiti art for a project, and it certainly is an acquired skill!
I’m not entirely sure what this graffiti room depicts in its entirety, but it looks like some sort of giant robot spewing out fire whilst launching off the ground. Either… Read More →

Check out these incredible examples of street art by talented artist, David Zinn. The way in which Zinn uses blocks of concrete, paving bricks, rocks and the streets in general is totally unique. His work is reminiscent of street artist, Ben Wilson, who paints chewing gum onto sidewalks (over here in the UK, we call them pavements!).
I just love the photo of the cat who appears to be trapped behind prison bar (see further down). What’s your favorite?

This project by Alexis Raimbault and Benoit Challand was originally created for the Paris-based exhibition, ‘la cite de la mode et du design’. The images show a digital combination of photographs (taken from beneath the exhibition center) together with weird and wonderful additional elements.
These sneaker 3D renderings were a personal project ‘experimenting with colour, surface and intricate pattern making with yarns’; created by UK-based Illustrator, Chris LaBrooy (see previous).

As a side-note—I think the way that the ‘yarn’ is squashed together looks a bit like a cross-section of a brain, or even intestines! Or is it just me? In any case, these designs are visually-stunning, don’t you agree? Check out the gallery below, along with a couple of examples of how they were created in 3D…

Apparently, there are loads of these that feature trees, along with landscapes, birds and floral designs, too. Check out the rest. My favourite is the one with the Panda, what’s yours?
