Your House is a Book October 29

‘Your House’ is a book designed by artist Olafur Eliasson.

Created by a German laser-cutting service called Kremo, it’s made of 454 pages – each one an individually laser-cut cross-section of the artist’s house.

All I can really say about it is – wow. And that I lucked upon it over at the excellent blog of Minneapolis man Eric Gjerde, Origami Tessellations.

    This is amazing, and such a beautiful idea.

    This reminds me of a piece at the museum of arts and design (MAD) where a guy stacked and put a few dowels through phone books and carved portraits into them.

    Beautiful and mind-bending… I can just imagine flicking through the pages. A 3D flipbook animation.
