Space art is eye-catching, peaceful and unique in its own way. I can spend hours looking at these space illustrations and “flying” away into my thoughts. Images you will find inside this post are created by such artists as Camille Besneville, Josef Barton, Jakub Skorutowski and others.

This is Kyoto University dormitory built almost a century ago, to be precise in 1913.Student squatters who live there pay an extremely low price: ¥2,500, about $27. Constructed at the southern edge of Kyoto University's Yoshida Campus, the dormitory was self-administered by the students who were in charge to select new applicants to live there.The building is maintained by students themselves, even though they did some little upgrades (like Ethernet cables in the corridors that lead to each room), but any of major building repairs have never been conducted and the building can't be considered safe, plus hygiene conditions are quite unsatisfactory.

It’s always difficult to fight against such “enemies” as sexually transmitted diseases and other bad habits that rule in modern society. It was even more difficult to battle against such diseases in the ‘30s and ‘40s in America. At wartime this propaganda was targeted at soldiers.

This two-story house of 400-square-meters area was built for holidays in a small town of the Mediterranean coast. A project by A-cero studio is known as Sotogrande house. Its main decorative element is white color that adds brightness and elegance to interior and exterior areas.
An unusual “cubic” structure and modern furniture look amazing. To tell you the truth, I am already in love with this beautiful building. Everything matches just perfectly!

Some Russian museums have strange collections. For example, this museum in Perm got an unusual masterpiece created by one Russian artist. If this is art, then it’s really atypical and odd.
