Ephemicropolis


Do you need a little bit of inspiration at the office on a 'boring' day? Well, artist Peter Root had this feeling of 'boredom' and decided to fashion an entire little city of staples (yes, you read that correctly!) and 100,000 staples later, Ephemicropolis was born! ...

It's Difficult to believe he spent only 40 hours building the installation in the lobby of a building, using solely stacks of staples that were split into various sizes (from full stacks about 12cm high down to single staples, taking up an approximate floor area of 600x300cm.

I can't stop thinking about how awesome the 'Domino Effect' would look like in Staples ... Hmmm?
