ARTmonday: Menno Aden’s Room Portraits

While finishing up tomorrow’s Designer Dailies post for Design Milk, I clicked through to Blu Dot’s blog. No surprise, they’ve recently posted some fun stuff, including a Room Portrait by German photographer Menno Aden. The series features aerial views of various rooms, both public and private. The perspective transforms the rooms into flattened, two-dimensional scale models. I think they’re great; some have a kind of deconstructed look. The first is my favorite. Thinking of contacting him about price . . .
