Pop Art is now a constant presence in our culture.

Here, we bring you some examples of interactive architectural and installation projects and the people and studios behind them.
It’s not often we come across agencies that truly live up to the oft-used hype ‘pushing the boundaries’. However, when we found Loop.pH, we knew it was special, so we decided to devote a whole feature to some of its recent work.
Kinetic art is any art that either depends on movement to create the desired effect or art that creates a perceivable movement for the viewer. Some installations allow the viewer to walk in, on, or become a part of them.
