It’s still a work in progress so I don’t have a whole stack of images but I really wanted to show you this photo manipulation series by Daniel Barreto, a 21 year-old Boston-based artist. From miniature dive bars with lights to cozy apartments built inside forest trees, it reminds me of a grown-up version of [...]
So painstakingly detailed, you could easily mistake these photographs for real life-sized rooms straight out of a decorating magazine or a coffee table book for ‘grand home design’. A Tennessee entrance hall These are miniature models made on a scale of one inch to one foot– that includes the upholstery, textiles, rugs, curtains, hand-painted wall-paper and [...]
“What brings us together and what keeps us apart” “All Star Nobody” “Play Fighting” You might find Slinkachu, an artist in his mid-thirties from London, crouched down on all fours on the pavement, and mistake him for someone that has keeled over in distress. In fact this once happened to him in the middle [...]
Either that or the Borrowers have survived into the computer age. Looks pretty cozy! Spot the gumball machine, the coke bottle and the New York Times. There’s little known about the miniature hobbyist who created this tiny living roOm converted from a PC, just that it was found via Reddit and originally posted on this [...]
“Atelier Nο5″ This is the beautifully bohemian (and slightly mad) small world of French artist Ronan-Jim Sevellec. At 80 years of age, his most recent exposition was in 2012 and saw his boxes of tiny artist’s workshops and old antique rooms displayed in various eccentric and romantic locations around Paris. Ronan spent much of his [...]
What I like most about Frank Kunert‘s work is that it makes me grunt– a grunt that says, “that’s clever, you cheeky bugger”. The German photographer makes all his tiny 3D models himself before he snaps them. Not all the punchlines in his scenes are immediately obvious, leaving the viewer to look a little longer, [...]
Check out this teeny tiny 300 square foot house, teeny back garden included! It’s located in Toronto, Canada and last went on the market for $179,900 in 2008. Here are the details from the listing: * Recently renovated from top to bottom! * Tumbled stone entrance walk * Renovated Bath * Renovated Kitchen with newer [...]
Does this room not make you want to bathe in its warm cocoon of preppyness and revisit those college years once more with brand new stationary and unrealistic expectations for what life has in store ahead? Yes! This is an actual college dorm room, belonging to a freshman no less, at the University of Pennsylvania. [...]
I found myself on another odd little mission this morning, seeking out miniature habitats on you guessed it– the wonderful world of Pinterest (once you start, you just can’t stop). Now, any manly men that might be reading this, please notice how I did not entitle today’s Pinterest Trend du Jour as ‘Dollhouses’, because I [...]
Most artists tend to think out of the box but this artist has gone back in the box– a sardine can to be exact. It’s safe to say Nathalie Alony enjoys working on a smaller scale and with her latest project, she’s created several series of miniature sculptures depicting anything from everyday life in little [...]
