A PICTURE...

Some will say that a picture is worth a thousand words, but London based designer, Stuart Haygarth has proven that 600 meters (of picture frame) is priceless.  This incredible installation was unveiled in the Victoria and Albert Museum for London Design Week.

Each frame was cut, mitered, sanded painted and joined before being installed.  Haygarth refers to this installation as a sort of "3D graffiti" on the very traditional marble staircase.  

The path created by the landscape of frames allows viewers to walk through the installation--a journey reminiscent of the Yellow Brick Road in the Wizard of Oz.  I love when you can tell a designer had fun!!

And, of coarse, I'm always a sucker for a good hand sketch :)
