Colourful Underground Parking by Craig Redman + Karl Maier -

Craig Redman, a New York based blogger of Darcel Disappoints  and Karl Maier who is based in Australia and is also the co creator of Pop Manifesto, collaborated together to create ’72DP’ which is the latest in a string of large-scale mural and installation works. According to Craig & Karl, “…..the objective of the project was to breathe new life into the space which, Having been rendered in concrete with little inlet of natural light, felt quite dark and heavy. Working closely with the owners, who possess a keen design sensibility, it was decided that the mural would cover all surfaces in a blanket of bright colour.

There was also a request that the larger wall surfaces be left blank with an eye towards potentially introducing additional, individually commissioned works at a future date. Nevertheless it was vital that the installation feel and function as a complete work in its own right.

The resulting design is a dynamic mix of overlapping geometric forms that mirror and respond to the angularity of the architecture. The whole piece is tied together by a winding, ribbon-style device which, acting as a central axis, leads in from the driveway, through the space and out to the garden beyond.”
