The rooftop party furniture is made from pool noodles - the long, cylindrical, water floatation toys. They have been cut and bunched vertically into chaise lounges and ottomans of varying heights for up to 150 people.
When viewed from above, the arrangement of buoyant seating material spells out the word "bububluooopppp" - the sound of something either rising or sinking.
Typography is the ultimate form of science meeting art. Space, size, type treatment/effects, contrast, color selection - and much more - go into every piece of design that involves the use of type.
In this showcase, you'll be able to feast your eyes on over 30 stunning and amazing artwork centered on typography with the aim of jumpstarting your creative juices.

In a new video installation for The Standard Hotel in NYC, artist Marco Brambilia (director of Demolition Man) and Toronto based studio Crush have created a moving mural inspired by Dante’s Divine Comedy which utilizes over 400 video sources, including samples from several films. The installation has been placed in one of The Standard’s elevators and when guests look through a viewport it simulates an ascension to heaven or, if you’re on your way to the street, your descent to hell.

In the battle of Print vs Digital in the green area, digital always wins in our minds, right? Here is a quote from the publisher of GD USA in his publishers note: "Corporate communications executives simply assume that using electronic media — emails, podcasts, websites or even television — is naturally greener than print. Print is an easy target, observes the report, but in reality, emedia alternatives can have a far greater environmental impact." So, read the article, visit the link and decide for yourself.
