CityArt

The Publique Living Store has a great selection of posters just released for sale. They are some quite stunning examples of what can be achieved  when applying an architectural design to a more traditional graphic design implementation.

Sydney Architecture Festival

Sydney Architecture Festival is coming upon us quickly. Interestingly it is on at the exact same time as Australian Web Week — October 2nd to 9th. Its going to a full, but thoroughly interesting and enjoyable week.

I’m particularly look forward to some of the exhibitions they are going to be running, in at Customs House at Circular Quay.

It’s a Small World

Thomas Doyle creates works that are part model, part art, part artifact and wholly surreal. Working at a scale of 1:43 or smaller, Doyle takes you to small fragments of a world of half memories and recollections.

Smart Light Fields

The Vivid Sydney festival – a “public festival of music, light  and ideas” – has just wrapped up in Sydney, over the weekend. One of the interesting aspects of the festival was a public piece called “Smart Light Fields“.

Architecture Lego

I have fond, fond memories of growing up playing with Lego. We used to have all the pieces wrapped up in a sheet (placed in a box) and when we wanted to play, we would lay the sheet out, and could survey every piece in the collection. The possibilities were endless.

Obsessions – Public Work

I stumbled across this really interesting example of experimentation in public space while browsing over at the Ministry of Type. Its a design put together in a public square somewhere in Europe (you can see a person there for scale). That would be kind of unremarkable just on its own, but the piece is put together using 250,000 1 Euro coins.
