Bored Panda reached out to Felipe to learn more about him.

First, the artist commented on whether living in Rio de Janeiro inspires the way he creates.

“Yes, Rio de Janeiro is inspiring. I try to find inspiration in the natural beauty and arts of Rio de Janeiro. Since 2023, I have been living in Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, which is also a wonderful place for inspiration!”

We wondered how the artist ensured that his creative designs would also work as real buildings. Felipe responded: “This is an art to exercise creativity. It helps me look at the "problem" from another perspective and find more practical solutions. I try my best to create a volume by imagining the structure and thinking about where the beams and structural pillars would be.

This makes these arts feasible.”

As for the takeaway, the artist shared what he hopes people will feel upon seeing his designs.

“Initially, I know that my drawings arouse curiosity in people, but the main message is that everyone should think about the transformation and creativity that the world provides. There is a solution for everything. We just need to look at it with different eyes and from another perspective, and then we can find a solution that is often close by but not being seen.”

We were curious if there is an object that Felipe hasn’t turned into a building design but really wants to. To this, he wrote: “I have drawn many objects. I will even suggest a game. Our readers can make suggestions of objects for me to draw.”

Lastly, Felipe added: “I send a message to my dear readers, enjoy the art and enjoy life!”
