Melbourne is building a skyscraper inspired by Beyoncé

Beyonce's curvaceous frame makes men (and women) drool. Now, it has even inspired architects to build this massive skyscraper.

Australian firm Elenberg Fraser has secured a planning approval to construct Melbourne's Premier Tower, which was partly inspired by the 33-year-old singer's 2014 Ghost video. The 68-story building, which will house 660 apartments and a 160-room hotel, will be erected at 134 Spencer St., just across the road from Southern Cross, one of Melbourne's major train and bus terminals.

No word on estimated completion date, but after this one I hope the guys over at Elenberg will build a Tove Lo tower, because that really needs to happen.

Weirdly Charming

If you’re a fan of art that makes you do a double-take, you need to check out Richard Brener . Based in the UK, Richard is an internationally collected artist who works primarily with ink, fineliners, and gouache. When you first see his pieces, they actually look pretty playful. Then you realize the entire canvas is packed with thousands of tiny, ghost-like shapes he calls "champs." They’re all squeezed together like commuters on a rush-hour train, and the level of detail is honestly mind-blowing. Richard spends hundreds of hours drawing these little guys over and over. It’s obsessive, very intentional, and a little bit wild. The cool part is that the longer you stare, the more the vibe shifts. Check out more photos below:

Organ donor signature campaign by Y&R New York

In general, people don't like seeing ads, but sometimes, when companies and ad firms go out of their way to come up with creative, inspirational and clever ways to heighten awareness for their campaigns, ads can be pretty amazing. Take, for example, these posters Y&R developed for Long Live New York . They're simple, yet brilliant, and they appeal to their target audience's emotions. They're now in NYC subways to educate commuters about the noble act of organ donation. [h/t: The Inspiration Room ]
