When making a trip to the design-forward Danish city, here’s what to see, from historic sites to modern masterpieces
Ukrainian artist and urban sketcher Nikita Busyak (aka citiesandsketches) has found a way to make his pen and ink sketches glow with life. His realistic drawings mostly revolve around architecture and feature various buildings and cityscapes and are made by using mechanical pen and ink. Recently, however, Nikita has added extra effects to his illustrations with stunning results. With each of his new architectural drawings, he started to digitally manipulate the windows of the buildings so that it would seem as if they glow with golden light, making it seem as if the drawing is filled with the darkness of the evening or night.

Polish illustrator and architect Maja Wrońska continues her architecture-inspired series of iconic cityscapes. Her charming illustrations were previously featured on Bored Panda, and now she comes back with her new collection of watercolor paintings that depict some lovely scenes from cities like Paris, Rome, Venice, and New York. “My drawings are strictly connected to the architecture so, for sure, architecture is my inspiration,” Wrońska says on her website.

Architectural drawings, that propose a different way of living. Artist Henn only provides this name as a description, so we are going to focus on the work. Cool design concepts that adapt to the location they are in. In these fantasy drawings, there are no limitations. Any house can be built anywhere, as long as you have the imagination to see it. A very freeing way of looking at the world. Granted not every idea can be applied in reality, but it expands what might be possible. Fantasy and all of its subsections, have inspired scientists, doctors and more... to produce things that without this spark of imagination, would have never been part of our everyday life. The real world is the way, because we enact concepts we see in our minds. Some we are told, we learn, some we can create ourselves... Ps. I gave the images some titles. A long ride to the outpost.

Gabriel Yeganyan is is returning this Fall to teach his "Architecture for World Building" class at CDA~!! https://conceptdesignacadstore.com/collections/intermediate-design/products/architecture-for-world-building-with-gabriel-yeganyan This important design class teaches the students the foundations of architecture structure, function and visual design themes to reflect the storytelling of the culture/people who created them. Three key periods of architecture history are covered and broken down during the many in class lectures and demos: - Ancient Civilization (such as Egyptian, Mesopotamian, etc.) - Asian Wood Architecture (such as Japan, China, Thai, etc.) - Medieval Gothic (from various areas in Europe) Students will learn the "anatomy" underneath the building's surface and learn how to use it to help them create believable and rich new worlds from their imagination. This is a class not to be missed by anyone interested in improving on their environment design. Space is limited, sign up soon~! First day of class start on Wednesday, Oct. 11th :)

Spanish sculptor David Moreno (previously) continues to blur the lines between two and three dimensions with his architectural artworks. Created using hundreds of steel rods and lengths of piano wire, Moreno’s sculptures take the shape of buildings, and his more recent works have ventured indoors, highlighting interior details like doorways and staircases. In 2017, the artist also created a large, immersive installation in the United Arab Emirates titled “Connecting Doors.” Moreno shares his work on Instagram and Behance. More

We know colors are here to stay whether it is in photography or television or even body arts like tattoos, but one cannot deny the intense classic appeal of black and white. There is something so touchingly evocative and striking about black and white that one cannot ignore it even if one wants to. We can’t really say why this is so, though we are sure that each of you out there has their own reasons for liking black and white as do we, but it still defies definition or explanation. Let us just say that when it comes art, some things are and it is better to accept it and enjoy it rather than go in to the reasons why it is so. The likelihood of ignoring black and white art when you learn about the popular painting styles in the modern world or for that matter any era.

The architecture of a place defines a place, a time period, a lifestyle. It captures a place's story and has its history written all over the walls of its architecture. Architecture defines an era, looking at the architecture of today we can conclude that it is either extremely random or architects now have the freedom to design as per their likes without being confined by any current trend....

More than 4 billion people live in urban areas globally. It’s now projected that by 2050, more than two-thirds of the world population will live in urban areas. So no wonder we pay more importance to the buildings and structures around us.
