Researching Mid-Century furniture as inspiration for facade systems…has resulted in a torturous yearning for all of these pieces. I guess we’ll just have to try and design facades that people will ogle at 50 years into the future.

Currently studying wall sections of a few buildings, I can’t help but think that (at least from my own experience), students look at images but don’t quite see architecture. I remember reading about this building numerous times, and immediately thinking, “Yeah I get it.” But when it comes to designing a facade in section, and looking to the same buildings for advice, they take on a completely new meaning.

The new series by AO maintains the captive nature of their work, carving out an illustration niche where representation, geometery, and surrealism work complementarily to depict dense scenes from a detached vantage point. They’re also one of the few digital art practices that have created a distinguishable identity based solely on technique. Awesome work.
