British artist Mr Doodle transforms Kent mansion with his hand-drawn sketches
In a unique artistic endeavor, British artist Sam Cox, known as Mr Doodle, has completely transformed a mansion in Kent into what he calls the "Doodle House." The project showcases his signature style of hand-drawn doodles, which cover every inch of the property, both inside and out.
The transformation involved a staggering 900 liters of white paint and 401 cans of spray paint, resulting in a truly astonishing visual effect. Sam Cox explained that it has always been his lifelong ambition to cover a house in doodles, providing a creative outlet that reflects his personality and artistic vision. Each doodle is unique, emphasizing the individualistic nature of his work.
In a remarkable time-lapse video, viewers can witness the painstaking process that took two years and utilized 2,000 pen nibs to bring this 12-room mansion to life. The interior is segmented into themed rooms, such as the "cloud room" and a tech-inspired computer room, where the doodles enrich the narrative of each space. Even the bathroom features 2,000 doodled tiles, enhancing the immersive experience of living in a hand-drawn world.
As the project nears completion, Sam and his wife Alina, affectionately dubbed Mr. and Mrs. Doodle, prepare to move in permanently. Despite the whimsical nature of their home, they report positive feedback from neighbors and an overall community embrace of their unique lifestyle choice.
The extensive commitment to this project not only highlights Mr. Doodle's artistic prowess but also invites questions about the intersection of art and daily life. How do you think it would be to live in such a creatively overwhelming environment? Many viewers online have expressed admiration for the daring transformation, sparking discussions about personal expression through home design.
