Astounding 3D illustrator Chris Labrooy created this athletic re-imaging of modern architecture entitled Sneaker Tectonics. Known to be an artistic wizard of the keyboard, Labrooy has certainly made a name for himself in the world of graphic design and 3D modeling. Based in the UK, Labrooy often manipulates the world around him to create eye-popping visuals that somehow manage to stay within the sphere of possibility. His most recent effort is no exception.
Sneaker Tectonics creates a vibrant facade of sporty sneakers stacked one on top of the other to form a sort of tower. Assembling the kind of design any sports store would jump for, Chris Labrooy provides architects with the means to explore impossibilities with a renewed interest spurred by what could be. In the art form of creating design inspiration, Chris Labrooy is king.
So, feast your eyes on this technicolor tower of kicks and pray for the day such feats of architecture will be found on every corner.
