Pablo Picasso - ceramics and sculpture

Pablo Picasso created not only oil paintings, but also voluminous paintings, sculptures and ceramics.

For his work, he used various materials from natural ones - for example, a leaf from a tree and a butterfly, to household items, for example - a colander.

There were also simple materials, such as white and red clay, bronze and wood.
We have collected some of his voluminous works and some photographs of Picasso at work.

Merilin Monroe and her home

The life of Marilyn Monroe in her only own house.

During her lifetime, the pop legend changed 43 places of residence, but only one was chosen and bought by herself. It is located at Los Angeles, Brentwood, 12305 Helena Drive.

The L-shaped house is located at a dead end, with a free-form pool in the courtyard, with trees and an citrus grove. It vaguely resembles the style of the Spanish colonialists - Hacienda, but not quite.

As a child, Marilyn changed 9 schools and a total of 43 residence and felt unwell because of this. The psychologist advised her to "take root." And she herself personally chose a house for herself and bought it. A one-story house cost a little less than 100 thousand dollars, and she paid half at once, and half got a mortgage. In this house she will live the last 6 months of her life and somebody will kill her there.

Monroe herself believed that the house was made in the Mexican style and even went to Mexico City to buy tiles, mirrors and other details for the interior in the Mexican style.

Monroe said that she felt safe in her house, like in a fortress. And then she was killed in her own bedroom.

On the tile at the main entrance to the house, it says: "Cursum Perficio", which in Latin means "My journey is over." The words on the tile became a prophecy for the star.

Marilyn Monroe is dead only physically and is alive in creativity. She became an attribute of the pop art style, and her image is sold and disseminated in art thanks to, for example, Andy Warhol and other fans.

Facade design for the restaurant

Yellow facade - installation and restaurant in the capital of Spain have become a real attraction of the city. It is so simple, bright and unique that it seems that more vegans appear among tourists. :-)

The facade of a vegetarian restaurant, made in the shape of a triangle attracts passers-by like a magnet. This simple design has interested so many people that the owner wants to increase the business.

The designers themselves (Eleni Karpatsi, Susana Piquer, Julio Calvo) call the facade an installation  "fos", which translates from Greek as "light". "Fos" is the name of the installation and of the creative group that created it.

You can think that the facade is easy to repair and you are wrong. Because the repair was even easier than you thought. :-)

The facade design took 4 days and 4 nights. He was not painted, but glued. :-). The wall is glued with yellow duct tape. If you look good, you can see it.

Yellow duct tape, some paint, pineapples, a picture, flowers and a lamp with the right lighting.

Designers designed the corners so that they retain the triangle of light from any angle.

And for perfectionists there is a better place for a photo.
