When New York Times blogger Christopher Niemann finished renovating his Berlin estate he wanted something cool in his bathroom. Something funky, something that gave the entire thing a blast.
After a while an old idea popped up in his brizzle and he decided he wanted to tile his sanitary rooms with small 4×4 colored tiles. Which would give a pixelated effect, as if it were pixel art.
So after lots of studies on classics in art, which he describes carefully in a blogging post at the NYT, Niemann came to the conclusion that old, detailed art isn’t suitable for pixelation. After a stop at the 20th century he came to Warhol. To Warhols Brillo Box, which is seen here.
After some detailed studies, a trip to the tile cutter and an afternoon of tiling this is the result.
