If you’re broke and squatting in an abandoned warehouse, you might as well make the best of it. Such is the mindset behind James Westwater’s “sustainable organic greenery domicile” better known as the Homeless Chateau. It has a small cooking and toilet area (gross), storage and a place to sleep – the essentials of any home. The caveat is that ...

The tank is back. This time around he’s not throwing cars and crushing skulls with lifeless paper arms. No sir, this tank is born anew thanks to Craftster user windgie79 who crocheted Amigurumi dolls of the entire infected cast of Left 4 Dead for her husband. The witch, the hunter, the boomer, the tank, the smoker — that’s all of ...

I’m crazy for mosaics. Who would’ve thought you could compound various unrelated colors together and display a picture of Spock. It’s mind boggling. Do you know what’s even more mind boggling? Mosaics made up of scrambled Rubik’s cubes. No new Rubik’s cubes here, this mosaic is made up completely of the classic Rubik’s cube you know and hate. It’s less ...

Brad Toemel was either in a badass fraternity during his college tenure or maybe he’s just an alcoholic bum. Either way, his 8-foot sculpture called FOUNTAIN is a wonder to behold in one’s eyes. It’s made from a shitload of Miller Lite, Keystone Light, PBR, Budweiser and Miller High Life cans, paying tribute to America’s love of binge drinking. It’s ...

I have no idea why these are called “Socks Anatomy” instead of “Anatomy Socks” but hey, to each his or her own. These are some badass socks though. Designed by Anton Repponen, they resemble bone and muscle tissue from inside your body and should give off a pleasing aesthetic look when you try a pair on. Perfect for Halloween or ...

If Mario and Peach settled down one day and bought a castle in the countryside, I’d imagine this is what their garden would look like. Though I’m not sure how Mario would feel about a Piranha plant growing in his own backyard. I would imagine a little fire would take care of the job…

Vince’s roommate is really in to Kidrobot‘s Munny dolls. For those not familiar, they’re blank “Do-it-Yourself” vinyl figures which can be decorated any way you see fit. When I’m not ruining Vince’s roommates Mini Munny designs, I’m busy searching for Star Wars Munnys like the one toy customizer and 3D artist for Avalanche Studios, Squapper, has made. It’s a Tusken ...

Rich Uncle Pennybags is very pleased with this new Monopoly set designed by Andy Mangold. Look at the packaging, the card holders, the lines of hotels and such; it’s quite the work of art. I love the rustic look the box gives off of a traditional board game. You know, the kind before mass-produced plastic, etc. The final package is ...

Talk about original! The guys at Format Magazine recreated a bunch of famous rap and hip hop album covers with LEGOs. You’ll find Run DMC and De La Soul classics to newer artists like The Game and Common. My personal favorite is the Gang Starr “No More Mr. Nice Guy” album cover. It’s so…1991. Hit the link below for the ...

The Sequence is an art installation from artist Arne Quinze. It’s been set up outside the Flemish Parliament in Brussels, Belgium for everyone to enjoy, proving that Brussels is more than just Jean-Claude Van Damme. Don’t have the time to get over to Belgium this year? No worries. The installation will remain in place for “at least five years” according ...
