Inspirational Street Stencils

 

Yesterday we shared a favorite stencil that was found right here in the streets of Madrid. We’re pretty lucky that street art is pretty common here and it on practically every corner. People’s creativity and ingenuity never cease to amaze. We are hoping to take our urban inspirations and apply them to some new projects with a domestic twist.

 

We have a wealth of ideas so far and are starting to do some test runs. We have one sure product that we hope everyone will enjoy just as much as we do! We’re going to let our nerdy sides shine through and hopefully everything will go swimmingly. We see so many creative people out there and we hope to find our niche along side.

 

Today’s featured stencil was found in the neighborhood of Lavapiés in the center of Madrid. Lavapiés is always full of surprises. Not only fun stencils, but great graffiti and creative urban art.

 

Stencil Marilyn

A majority of our upcoming projects will involve stencils, so we’ve decided to share some of our favorites that we’ve found around the city. Here we have the lovely face of Miss Marilyn Monroe. This stencil was found in downtown Madrid, at the entrance of an apartment building.

The beginning, an idea

This blog was invented out of spontaneous idea to share our ideas, adventures, projects, art and everything else in between. We are both highly creative people and decided we’d like to share it with the world. Whether it be our gardening experiments or unplanned city adventures, we want to share it all.

Sergio is a graphic designer, who also dabbles in other mediums. He is a great stenciler and has a knack for design. This talent isn’t limited to only graphics, and is expressed through all of his innovative projects.

I, Caroline, am an art historian who also tends to get lost in good literature. I am DIY crazed and constantly looking for ideas to re-purpose items. I like finding new uses for everyday things and having creative organizing systems. This results in a LOT of recycling.

This is the beginning of a new adventure for us and we hope you enjoy!
