The Chickadee by Brevard Tiny Homes.

I've always had a secret, wild desire to own a tiny home, but this has sent that desire into overdrive. A proper kitchen with full-size appliances! Coo. I just can't stop looking at it.

This was me all weekend. Duck = Chickadee

Itty bitty bonsai plants!

JUST LOOK AT HOW TINY THEY ARE! (If they put a kitten or a baby sloth next to it, I think my head might explode from cuteness.)

Industry experts consider bonsai plants less than 3 cm (about 1 inch) to be particularly difficult, but artists have taken on the challenge, creating tiny plants and tiny planters that, literally, are at your fingertips. It’s given rise to a new category, known as cho-mini bonsai, or ultra-small bonsai.

I'd never buy it, but its goofy design and tiny-ness is completely charming.

Patrick Jacobs’ Magnified Portals into Miniature Worlds | Colossal

These dioramas are mindboggling.





Artist Patrick Jacobs creates small dioramas embedded in gallery walls, encased in magnifying lenses with a diameter as small as three inches. The effect is uncanny, focusing the viewers attention on the absolute tiniest of spaces containing lush green fields, cramped apartment paces, and clumps of small mushrooms. The pieces can take several weeks to complete, though one installation has consumed his spare time for over two years. Jacobs was born in California in 1971, attended the Art Institute of Chicago and now lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. If you want to learn more head over to Charles and Ford to read a fantastic interview including some great imagery.

Paolo Ventura: Venezia

If you're in NY, I think you should go to see this diorama installation. I would. Good dioramas are fascinating.






His precision dioramas of beautifully dreary, eerily quiet Venetian locales set in the 1930s - somewhat surreal yet nonetheless quite real - are the basis for his exquisite large-scale photographic prints. His craft is impeccable. But there is much more to be felt in these stunning works. – (via Imprint Magazine)

World's Largest Miniature Airport Goes On Display In Germany.

My obsession with tiny things would probably kill me if I saw this in person.




The world's largest miniature airport has gone on display at Miniatur Wunderland in Hamburg, Germany. Miniatur Wunderland is also home to the world's largest model railroad landscape.

The model airport is based off of Hamburg's Fuhlsbüttel International airport, according to news.com. The display took 7 years and roughly $4.8 million to build.

The model includes a whopping list of accessories, including 40 planes, 40,000 lights, 15,000 figurines, 500 cars, 10,000 trees, 50 trains, 1000 wagons, 100 signals, 200 switches and 300 buildings. The figurines move autonomously via computer.

The roughly 494-square feet display opened on Wednesday.

Canal Street Cross Section by Alan Wolfson.

A perfectly executed tri-level diorama. A complete wonder.





Notes from the Artist:

I wanted to build a piece that resembled a core sample of a city street. As though you took a street, dug it up, and lifted it straight off the earth. "Canal St. Cross-Section" is a combination of five major pieces built into one box. There's a street scene on the top with a subway entrance on the corner. Looking down into the subway entrance, you are led to the two subterranean levels of the piece, both of which have intersecting cross views visible through the small windows on the sides of the piece.

Tiny Buildings.

In the 1970s, when our children were young, my husband, James Mount, started a collection of tiny buildings - made from odds-and-ends cardboard packaging. The original idea was for them to be Christmas decorations - to be placed over tiny white lights on our tree, or to gather on a side table as a little village. Each holiday, James would add to our collection. A few were given to friends, but most rested in an attic-stored box through most of the year...escaping for Christmas, to our delight.

Because the tiny buildings were made from familiar boxes, or restaurant business cards, or other pieces collected as we traveled and lived, they became miniature memoirs of happy times and places.

Many years later, in 2000 or so, ten years after James' death, I started to add to the collection. I gathered cards from the many stores and restaurants and fun places that Jane and Madison, our now-grown children, and I visited, and gave them to each of them for Christmas presents.
