12 Illustrations That Combine Animals And The Architecture That’s Destroying Their Natural Habitat By An Ex-Architect

As humans, we have become dependent on many modern life luxuries such as modern houses, TVs, cell phones, computers, smart devices, and much more. It's hard to admit to ourselves that many of them we don't really need in our lives and some of these devices we just use once or twice and then forget all about them. Sometimes we just throw them away for the sake of "keeping it simple".

Even though the process of buying another manufactured metallic or plastic good may not look harmful to anyone, well, it actually is... for our environment. As much as we sometimes try to ignore or postpone the fact that our daily life activities and unnecessary purchases are directly attributing to the cause of hundreds of extinctions, climate change, and many other natural disasters, the facts are speaking for themselves.

Eisa Baddour from Syria is a visual and architectural designer based in Milan, Italy, who after visiting many European cities, began to miss nature and moved away from architecture.

"Human invasion is taking over natural resources. Countries that were once identified by their culture or their natural beauty are seeking recognition for their engineering achievements. The universal system made a huge impact on wildlife and made it impossible for some species to interact with man-made civilization. Humans are the most adaptable creatures on the planet, yet our ego is blinding us from the fact that our actions have great consequences on animals around the globe. It is getting really hard to answer ethical questions nowadays such as: Which is more important? A building or an animal?" Eisa told Bored Panda.

With a project called "Archianimals" the artist wants to raise public awareness and make people think before making another unnecessary purchase or building another building in the place where animals still live. In his illustrations, he shows famous architectural buildings with animals close to these countries to make us question which is more important: a building or an animal?

Wouldn't it be even better if he used is professional skills to improve the way we build and invite us and nature to get back together again? Drawing comics won't change anything...

Oh yeah or maybe it's just because i'm a dumb person but why are so many of the buildings old ones? Like historical ones? shouldn't the artwork feature modern ones to reflect how we clear land to make space for new things?

This is really confusing. Not all of them include architecture and some of the are domesticated animals who aren't threatened by humans. Example: Chickens/Roosters are not native to France. They are not threatened by the Eiffel tower. Not all the architecture featured is damaging to the wildlife it is picture with. The pyramids, are not threatening camels.

I thought the same. Perhaps the artist just decided to use known buildings and animals because it's more likely for people to pay attention when they see something they are familiar with. It's easier to get their attention like this and then spread the message of human over-population and all that it causes threatening animals.

Interesting timing, I just received an email from National Geo, this article is about animals and tourism, after reading the article I was livid and felt sick, in some areas wild animals are captured and held captive for the tourists, this is a dire situation for the animals as they are badly mistreated, the tourists are unaware !!!
