Staircase Design by Philip Watts
Sep 25th, 2011This unique staircase design was created by Philip Watts Design.It is very sculptural, yes – and somehow reminiscent of a spinal column or an elongated shiny ribcage.

Sep 21st, 2011“The photographs in Adam Magyar‘s Square series appear to show crowds of people bustling about in open town squares, seen from a height that makes them look almost like ants. In reality, each photograph is actually a composite of hundreds of individual photos, and none of the squares actually exist. Magyar photographed strangers walking on sidewalks from only 3-4 meters off the ground, and then blended the photographs together to make them seem like they were captured from a fake height!”
