Most people love their pets, but some people really love their pets, and 'RE Apartment', a residence in Porto Alegre, Brazil, evidently belongs to the latter. The design, while primarily elegant and sleek, features a huge wall mural created by local artist Suye and depicting a playful portrait of the family dog, Pacha.
The mural is painted entirely in white on a black background, giving it the off-hand look of a chalk drawing, though its impressive degree of detail shows that it's so much more than that. There are slogans in various languages hidden all throughout the mural as well, such as the cheeky "Home is where the dog is" which surrounds the picture of Pacha. Since the mural is at the entryway of the apartment, its clear that the residents consider it an essential centerpiece of their home.
