Sand Crop Circles by Andres Amador


Andres Amador works with one of the biggest canvases available, with entire lengths of beaches swallowed up by his art. Sadly the sea is no discerning art critic, for once the San Francisco artist finishes his staggering artwork, the waves come in to wipe the slate clean.


Many of his stunning images, which start out as simple squiggles in the 39-year-old's notebook, span an incredible 500x300feet and are raked into the grains in a race against the tide.


Using a canvas crafted by the elements the patient American waits for a full or new moon to make sure low tides offer him plenty of space to muster the incredible patterns.

Most Artistic and Unusual Museum Designs

When did making museums start to become an art form in its own right? Sometime in the last two decades, as wealthy patrons began flooding museums with donations so they could expand their collections, the architecture of museums around the world became nearly as important as the art and history they contain.

Here are some of the most unusual and artistic museum designs around the globe. I hope you will like it.

Royal Ontario Museum Extension, Toronto

Royal Ontario Museum is a creation of communicative, stunning and unexpected architecture which signals a bold re-awakening of the civic life of the museum and the city.

The Rosenthal Contemporary Arts Center

Made of concrete and matte black aluminum, the 85,000 square foot building houses temporary exhibits of contemporary art. With this building Zaha Hadid became the first woman architect to complete a major museum project in the United States.

The Akron Art Museum

A soaring glass and steel structure is strikingly juxtaposed with a late nineteenth-century brick and limestone building at the Akron Art Museum. It has an exhibition space that seems to float on air and the “Roof Cloud”, a cantilevered steel armature that extends over both the old and new buildings.

Guggenheim Museum Bilbao

It’s often said that the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao started the trend of making the building that houses are just as important as the art itself. The design is both fluid and geometric, with its reflective titanium-clad walls sparkling in the sun.

National Museum of Art, Osaka

Osaka’s National Museum of Art resembles a giant metal insect, crouched on the ground with its wings extending into the air. Constructed of titanium-coated steel tubes, the outer shell of the building serves as an eye-catching sculptural form that belies the museum’s contents

Museum of Middle East Modern Art in Dubai

Though it has not yet been built, the planned Museum of Middle East Modern Art in Dubai definitely has people talking. Naturally, opinions vary, with some lauding its fluidity while others say it looks like a giant air conditioning unit.

Weisman Art Museum, Minneapolis

The Weisman Art Museum is among the American Midwest’s most well-known buildings. The side that faces the University of Minnesota Twin Cities is brick to blend in with the rest of the buildings, but the opposite side is a glittering abstraction of a waterfall and a fish.

The New Museum on the Bowery, NYC

The New Museum on the Bowery looks like a stack of white baker’s boxes rising into the sky, clad in aluminum mesh that disguises the windows.

The Denver Art Museum, Denver

Design reflects the nearby Rock Mountain peaks and consists of large geometric shapes clad in titanium. The dramatic expansion, which houses the Modern and Contemporary art collection as well as the collection of Architecture and Design, doubles the size of the museum and now serves as its entrance.

Burke Brise Soleil, Milwaukee Art Museum

It’s a moveable, wing-like sunscreen perched atop the museum’s vaulted Wind hover Hall. It has a wingspan comparable to that of a Boeing 747-400 – spreading 217 feet at its widest point.

Most Interesting and Unusual Bed Styles

Comfort has always been a priority for people around the globe. When a person comes back home after a stressful day at work, he wants to take rest on his bed. People all over the world show creativity in every walk of life and so does represent this list.

Here I have compiled some of the most unique and interesting beds used around the globe. This list is not only about bed but an achievement of mankind of using his intellectual capability in order to make himself comfortable.

HOUSEFISH SUSPENDED BED

House fish Suspended Bed is CNC machined aluminum, stainless steel tension cables. The mattress platform is held completely rigid- it does not swing or sway. It has a price tag of $3000.

SAMPON DAYBED OUTDOOR BED

Sampon daybed is a sleekly plastic resin waved bed. Can be placed anywhere outside in your lawn giving it a more luxurious and elegant look.

PRIVATE CLOUD ROCKING BED


The Private Cloud is a patented rocking bed by German designer Manuel Kloker. They don’t tell the price, but it is real.

Wild Wild Bed

Came across this bed and found it quite interesting. Tried to find its name but didn’t succeed so named it myself. Wild wild bed can give a very wondrous look to any farm house.

SUNSET CHASE LOUNGE

This elegant piece by Rausch, designed for luxurious poolside lounging, could easily be mistaken for a dramatic outdoor sculpture. Hidden wheels allow for easy movement.

MAGNETIC FLOATING BED

Conventional furniture is in contact with the earth through gravity. Floating Bed overcomes this fundamental power. Four thin cables assure its motionless position and form the only contact with the ground.

FLOTIFORM BED

Flotiform is another creative bed design. Pull out side tables with cup holders for one or both sides of the bed. Thin steel wires form its marvelous base with ground.

Floating bed


Also called “The cradle in Arms” made of natural latex, bamboo and wool. Float bed including mattress costs about more then 20 grand’s.

OHM TRANSPORMABLE BED


Ohm is a bed that can be transformed into 2 individual beds into a modular sofa or a bench via an electronic device installed inside the structure.

FLOATING BED CHICAGO

Floating Bed Chicago is designed by Robert Bernstein .The four supporting cables at the corners of the bed go straight up vertically to the ceiling and a star shaped cable lining prevents it from movements
