Mondrian Architecture

Fractal inspired by Piet Mondrian, built with Processing. The joy of creating fractal structures on this large scale is exploring the detail, they can truly be said to “work on many levels”.

  1. thats more like it! i remember seeing a photo of a sunrise over a suburban street in newcastle about six months ago and thinking it could inspire things like this. i said to myself i’d start to build it but never got round to it. now you’ve beat me to it, but you sure did a good job (a few less colours though, eh…)

    i can see how mondrian is inspiring, but the street photo was more so. i’ll have to pick this up. it’s only between essay writing, making the green-flex app i’m trying to make, etc etc, i don’t get the time. damn.

    i can see echoes of ‘nude descending a staircase’ in the first of these images. both of them actually.

  2. sorry, not the first, the second and third, i meant
