I’ve always admired people that think outside the box and stretch their imagination to create designs and concepts that showcase new possibilities and new ways of thinking beyond what already exists.
In the field of design, being a visionary and a dreamer is part of the creative process and the work of Roman Vlasov, to me, is the epidemy of this.
He’s most known for his futuristic home designs that appear to defy physics while at the same time seem perfectly suited to their surroundings. He recently made headlines for his PUTIN HOUSE design – an expansive mansion set atop the trees of a forest in Russia. It immediately conjures images of Bond villains or the Russian leader himself assessing his empire from the lofty heights it affords.
I’m equally impressed with his other work and feel inspired by his multicultural workplace. This is also at the core of my business and the way I build my team, which is full of diversity and people from different backgrounds, cultures, and perspectives. I believe this is so important for the creative process, as this diversity creates a universal aesthetic in the work we produce.
I’m inspired by architecture, and like many architects out there, I enjoy the ability to take on very ambitious projects. Roman, to me, is incredibly ambitious, and I truly respect his work.
We have to be progressive in the way we design for today’s market and culture. Seeing his work is liking looking into the future, and I hope we all get to enjoy his concepts in real life.
I’ll leave you here with some images of his amazing vision.
