Jinil Park's scribbly furniture


This chair by South Korean designer Jinil Park might not be the most comfortable piece of furniture, but I still want one. The images here look like rough drawings, but look closer and you'll see that they're actually photographs of life-sized and fully functioning lamps, tables and chairs. 

The metal wire gives them their sketchy look, with Jinil opting to use wires with different thicknesses to make them look more like doodles. All these stuff are part of his Drawing Series collection, which were on display at the Gwangju Design Biennale in South Korea in 2013.





"The key point of my work," he says "is the moments where the line is distorted. They express the designer's feeling, status, and emotion. In the matter of design, the line plays a very basic but also crucial role because it is an element that generates a standard point for both the beginning and the end of any work piece."

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.

'Star Wars' cutaway illustrations by Hans Jenssen and Richard Chasemore

These illustrations by Hans Jenssen and Richard Chasemore explore the inner workings of some of the most famous Star Wars vehicles, from the AT-AT walker to the Millennium Falcon. The interesting part about these images is that they're completely hand drawn, with no help from a computer whatsoever. Prepare to marvel at these wonderful examples of sci-fi art!  [h/t: Galactic Academy ]

This app turns freehand sketches into realistic photos

Artificial Intelligence is undoubtedly changing the nature of creative processes. Computer algorithms have generated numerous paintings, poetry, music, and even movie scripts. While some people could not keep their hands off these innovations, the question whether AI-created art can really be deemed as art still lingers around. If you want to create photorealistic portraits but you're struggling to see improvement in your depictions, AI seems to have an answer to your problem. As stated on its project page, the DeepFaceDrawing app "allows users with little training in drawing to produce high-quality images from rough or even incomplete freehand sketches." Check out the demo video below: Impressive. But I still believe that while machines can produce stunning visuals, it doesn't mean they will replace artists.
