Brazil World Cup stadiums illustrated by André Chiote Posted: 29 Jun 2014 05:41 PM PDT André Chiote is one of the famous illustrators who have illustrated five of the 12 World Cup Stadium in Brazil. This year the famous FIFA World Cup 2014 has been hosting on Brazil and it's stadium is captured in graphic posters mentioned below by Portuguese illustrator André Chiote. The stadium highlights key elements of building's design with blocks of color in André Chiote's signature style. “If a building (stadium or other kind) has an expressive design, a ‘key concept’, it becomes much easier to illustrate because you quickly discover what the aim of the project was, and it becomes much easier to communicate it,” Chiote told Dezeen. Chiote choosed the diamond grid pattern that criss-crosses the rounded structure in or der to illustrate the Amazonia Arena in Manaus by GMP Arkitekten. The way he represented and played with graphics with blue, yellow and green color showcases the host country's flag. He said that, “So, as a national statement, I thought it was an interesting approach to use the colors of Brazil’s flag to produce iconic images of some new symbols of that country.” He also explained that what interests him about stadiums is “the capacity to become landmarks and city icons”. “Also, usually, as they are exceptional buildings, architects and engineers develop innovative designs and technical solutions,” he added.

The covers are only part of the book, earlier work by the cover expert are also featured in the book, such as interior design, jacket sketches or art.

People skewered with geometric shapes Posted: 27 Jun 2014 04:48 PM PDT With Aakash Nihalani's geometric artworks, you'll see the essence of what art if all about and how it has an ability to catch someone's attention at a moment's notice. Nihalani's creative ideas of creating three-dimensional (3D) images on two-dimensional (2D) are just exceptional. With the help of bright and bold lines at the forefront, Nihalani is able to showcase 3D experience which is pleasing to watch and conveys complexities such as movement and space by something so simple as the placement of a line. "My street work consists mostly of isometric rectangles and squares. I selectively place these graphics around New York to highlight the unexpected contours and elegant geometry of the city itself", says Nihalani. The intentional interplay between the conventional shapes which are unconventionally portrayed to the users makes Nihalani's work so appealing. It's more than a geometric arrangement. Nihalani who has been skewering subjects in Brooklyn with his geometric figures made from neon tape as part of a new body has a lot of new work called Landline. Here are some of his fabulous arts.
