How much more lively and joyful would the world if the houses, instead of being monochromatic, were painted of flowers? It is a vision that the artist Audrey Smit has been carrying out for years with the “Paint The World” project, transforming each surface into an explosion of colors and delicacy with its wonderful floral patterns.
Just take a look at his Instagram profile to find himself in a parallel universe, where the beauty of nature is intertwined with architecture, giving life to fairytale scenarios.

But there is a small secret that only the most attentive observers can grasp. If it is true that Audrey creates elegant floral motifs for wallpaper and for prints intended to decorate the interiors, the same cannot be said of the murals that cover the houses published on its profile.
Those masterpieces do not exist in reality: they are the result of a wise digital work, made with Photoshop starting from photographs of real buildings. A perfect illusion, capable of making anyone who focuses to look at them dream. But also a way to inspire people to greater uniqueness in their daily life.
