When I came across this project by Soon, a design firm based in Belgium, the child in me shrieked with delight. I didn’t read a lot of comics when I was younger, but I did love making homes out of paper and tape and inventing my own worlds. As an adult, this kind of magical immersive environment is hard to come by.
It’s great to see what can be made with very simple everyday materials, and I think this 3D comic universe is genius. I really appreciate that they’ve used color so sparingly. The result is that these domestic scenes are humorous and childlike, but also sophisticated; like a pop-art Lichtenstein universe. According to their site, this is for an upcoming project—I’m on the edge of my seat to see where this ends up!
