This series of pictures are the result of a 7-year long journey that brought me to countries such as Latvia, Israel, and Germany. The story begins in the summer of 2006, a crucial date in my life because, after 2 years of deep thinking, I finally decided to quit as a freelance 3D architecture designer and illustrator, a job that had kept me busy for over a decade.

The job paid very well, I had plenty of customers and a very good reputation in Barcelona (I still have), but in the last period, the incoming digital art projects began to be a bit repetitive and boring. I found out that I had totally lost my motivation for it. Even, I had begun to hate 3D architectural illustration. So I began this journey with little money in my pocket that I saved from my recently closed business, but without any clear idea of what I was going to do in my life, professionally-wise. One good thing about long journeys is that, suddenly, one comes across plenty of time for oneself, so I believe that for the sake of learning as much as possible from those eventual insights, one must keep an open mind. So I tried and is one of the most important conclusions the fact that I can't be further away from hating 3D architecture art. On the contrary, I love it way much more than I would ever expect... The real problem stifling my creative ideas here was working for customers!

That is why I decided to truly work for myself and try to make a living out of whatever the hell was going to come out of my mind, without any personal or environmental limitations. The result is a constantly growing series of building designs, which I have encircled in a project called "City Portraits" which depict interesting buildings that for some reason were important to me during that long journey. Buildings that, after being photographed, were digitally manipulated to acquire an alternative form. And this is what hitherto I have been doing. Hope you enjoy these works of art!

This one is too funny. I wonder if you can go inside, and if so, what's it like in there?

This is an awesome use of 3D software to create impossible buildings

For some reason they saw a decline in business after the nuclear shift.

Every time this building comes up, I think "it can't possibly get any stranger than this"...and then it does.

All very cool, but I'd like to see the before shots to see the magnitude of change. But definitely awesome!
