Rehabilitation of Palazzo di Vigonovo, Venice, Italy

The 'Rehabilitation of Palazzo di Vigonovo' by 3ndy studio, is a commemoration of a 19th century structure that suffered from a fire. Elements such as double arched windows have been incorporated into the perforated metal facade to reflect the original building. The facade is constructed from 90 sheets of corten steel, with words in varying fonts cut into the metal sheets to create a sculptural facade.

Grappa Flower Lamp Chandelier, 96 Rothschild in Tel Aviv





Grappa Flower Lamp Chandelier, 96 Rothschild Hotel, Tel Aviv

The organic Grappa Flower Lamp Chandelier, by Aviad Petel, falls through the stairwell of the boutique hotel '96 Rothschild' in Tel Aviv. 12 meters in height, the concept was to create a light feature that flowed through the space, taking influences from the climbing pomea tricolor plant.

There is a hint of art deco to the form and colour of the flowers, that marries well with the stairwell design and ballustrade.

Inital interest in comic book art gave way to matte painting and concept design after he saw the Art of Star Wars books.

Within a year and a half of graduating from UCLA, Dylan was off to New Zealand to be a senior matte painter for Return of the King. Since then, Dylan has contributed art to over 50 films including Avatar, Alice in Wonderland, and Tron Legacy.
