Crazy Interior Design

http://freegums.net/?paged=2

     Looking for examples of spatial tension for my first ARC Design drawings I found this blog called Freegums, which looks to be a group of young interior designers or very artsy people bringing life and exictement to the interior spaces :)
The print they used is very simple and a bit indie looking, the room is a mystical portal of swirls and black and white... I liked how they added irregular shapes of the same pattern as frames on the wall which chamoflage with the rest of the room.
Freegums look like they enjoy what they do and have fun with friends while beautifying their enviroment.
Two thumbs up for them, very cool lifestyle.

AND HERE IS SOME INFO I FOUND ABOUT THEM


Narwhal Art Projects is pleased to present IN-BETWEEN, the first Canadian solo exhibition with Miami-based creator Alvaro Ilizarbe (aka FREEGUMS).
IN-BETWEEN is an exploration of space, patterns, and the energy that lies in-between. Not limited to the edges of the canvas, the Narwhal exhibition space will be an immersive op-art experience – a series of hallucinogenic black and white patterns on amorphous wooden pieces disguised on identically patterned wallpaper. The wood paintings’ swirling lines blend seamlessly into the background, becoming one. Contrasting line work creates a visual vibration and a tension within the environment, playing with the viewers’ conscious interpretation. Through this installation and body of paintings, Alvaro is revealing the awareness of spatial energy that lies between oneself and the object.
