Design: Whimsical Architecture

in #art7 years ago

British sculptor Alex Chinneck creates whimsical architectural interventions that will have you stopping and taking a second glance.

Overturned car parking lots, torn buildings and inverted building facades are executed with such precise detail that it is difficult to determine where reality ends and surreality begins.

Enjoy the photos:

Mr. Alex Chinneck is definitely one of those guys who wants to take your brain and place it on the edge. Anything that goes against the normal or the typical way of see our surroundings it seen that Mr. Alex Chinneck likes to attack. It's remains me the Deconstructivism movement but on different items, not only buildings. Interesting, for sure.

thank you for this valuable comment, indeed going against the norm can really make you feel on the edge.

This is so cool! Did you take the photos?

thanks, and I did not take the photos, tried to find the photographer but did not succeed.

wtf !!!!! the photos really amaze me. this is really creative, it is one of the attractions of tourism. where people will be amazed by the architecture of the building so unique and make the mouth say waaaaawww

I totally agree with you, WAW would be the first thing to come in mind when seeing this.

Great post
That is so strange how normal things dispalyed in a other way seems so strange and wrong

I guess that is the point of making people stop from what they are doing, Design should challenge the normal to be successful.

Wow,greait!

Thank you.

I like your photos, looked with pleasure, you are a good blogger. I wish you luck in this work

Thank you @baksi for your compliment and happy to see you here.

give me you voice please

Perhaps, most difficult and at the same time obligatory in architecture is simplicity. Simplicity of forms obligates to give them wonderful proportions and correlations that would report necessary harmony.Your post pleased me, I wish large material achievements to you
