The post Kellogg Doolittle Mansion Looks Like a Fossil from Above appeared first on Wallpaper Data.
]]>The fossil mansion was designed in the early 1980s by American architect Kendrick Bangs Kellogg, known for his innovation and “an architecture so full of life that it seems to breathe.” He was commissioned by Beverly and Jay Doolittle, who gave the architect as much time and freedom as he needed to get the work done.
After being in construction for more than 25 years, the Kellogg Doolittle mansion was finally finished in 2014. It consists of two buildings and has an interior structure formed by 26 piers that serve as walls. There is no lumber or drywall used for the interior.
Kellogg brought in his protégé John Vugrin to handle the interior design of the mansion. Vugrin followed Kellogg’s idea, opting for natural material and twisted curvilinear shapes.
“From its hand-laid stone path to the marble, copper, and glass work inside, there is no detail about Kellogg Doolittle that is underwhelming,” it says on the official website of Kellogg Doolittle mansion. “It takes days to take it all in. Never has the relationship between every item inside a home been so strong, but since everything, down to the BBQ and Table Lamps were made custom, and specifically for the home, that relationship is highly poetic.”
Kellogg Doolittle mansion welcomes visitors who want to marvel at its beauty and is also available for short-term rent as accommodation, filming location, and event center. You can learn more about it in this tour from the Architectural Digest.

]]>Salah primarily creates her art on cardboard. This allows her to add some 3D elements to her works, making them even more eye-catching. This includes cutting out the pieces of cardboard to change the texture of the background, allowing her designs to stand out.
Salah’s works showcase all sorts of different buildings and architectural styles. You’ll see mansions, apartment buildings, and cozy shops created in a range of styles from contemporary architecture to Brick Gothic. In order to get the best results, this talented artist also combines various techniques, including watercolors, markers, and pencils.
Social media users and architecture enthusiasts have been quite impressed with Salah’s drawings and sketches. Her Instagram page has surpassed 100K followers, while each of her posts gets welcomed with praise and recognition.

]]>The post Light Shines through the Windows in Nikita Busyak’s Architectural Sketches appeared first on Wallpaper Data.
]]>While looking for ways to pass the time during long college classes, Busyak often found himself doing sketches. His most frequent subjects were buildings and monuments he saw in his hometown or during his trips around Europe. He also frequently made up his own architectural designs.
One time, Busyak decided to see if there was a way to improve his simple sketches with computer software. He experimented with effects until he got an idea to turn on the lights inside his buildings using a digital tool. This added a whole new dimension to his works, creating a warm and intimate atmosphere that pops up from the paper.
“I instantly fell in love with the effect and realized that this was the style I’ve been searching for for so many years,” he explained in a recent interview.
These architectural sketches proved to be quite popular on social media, with internet users being impressed not only by their glowing effects but also the variety of architectural styles they display, from the Baroque period to drawing of a simple cabin in the woods. Check out more of Busyak’s works below.

]]>Born in France and currently based in London, Herem is actually trained in graphic design rather than architecture or illustration. “I always wanted to be on the illustration side of things rather than the design side,” he admitted in an interview with Uncube Magazine. “I’m very interested in the aesthetic aspect of architecture and I find that graphic design allows me to learn about this through the construction of images of buildings. In this way I learn about the history of buildings too.”
After establishing himself as a freelance illustrator, Herem published his first book, titled Know Your Rodent, which according to him has further developed his love of illustrating buildings. He had since collaborated with brands and companies, including Soho House, Liberty, Samsung, and Herman Miller.
“For each drawing I find that there is something special about the building that drives me,” he says. “For ‘the Grand Budapest’ it was the symbolism, what the film’s story represented for me, and the great respect that I have for the director. Drawing ‘fiction’ was a first for my practice and something that I enjoyed a lot. I spent 600 hours alone on the drawing before adding the watercolour, during which I felt wholly within Wes Anderson’s universe! So it was the fictional aspect of the building that felt most present to me when I was working on it.”
Take a look at some of his incredible creations.

The orders are coming in from all over the world and the company will ship them in January 2020.
“We developed a simple method we learned at the university in a course called Basic Design,” the owners told This Is Colossal. “The first and only law is to maintain the minimum number of lines necessary so that the building can still be identified. Once the lines in the design could no longer be erased, we reached the destination.”
