Tokyo Metropolis Architectural Illustrations

Looking for a different way to promote and present architectural designs besides known rendering and visualization techniques this projects follows an exciting attempt and research to use the collective graphical and visual language of a manga or a comic as representation and communication tool. They are occurring in every possible form on every possible level in a daily life base, so what could be more shared and comprehensible than to take this language and create at the same time more awareness of cityscapes, public spaces and activities taking place within your daily (urban) environment.

Besides his interest on emergent forms of urban planning and urban development, he particularly focuses on the value and importance of architectural drawings, illustrations and stills as communication tool and transmitter of information, time, emotion or atmosphere. Trying to blur and combine certain limits and elements between architecture, graphics, comics and fiction. Drawings experienced and understood as playful sites and topographies, open for speculations, experiments and ideas. The result, images handling different scales driven by diverse inspirations, detailed and vague at the same time. Occasionally being more relational or abstract than architectural, spatial or figurative, presented and positioned between a technical draft and an artistic expression and always relying on the observer for explanation. Being more interested in following the idea to keep things in play, to maintain an uncertainty, to trigger enthusiasm than driven by the need to produce unique or in a certain way 'completed' drawings.
