Cubist, Inception-esque, so-freakin’-cool! Call it what you will. Michael Jantzen’s digital deconstructions of houses and churches will make you look twice. He collages Picasso-esque buildings by digitally breaking up buildings and rotating the pieces into a totally new structure. It’s his way of seeing the world anew and pushing the limits of what’s possible. (Awesomely, he made it a reality with this real life deconstructed house!) If you’re inspired by these deconstructed houses, try your hand at panography, make a digital Picasso, or take advantage of Photoshop CS6′s content-aware fill tool, which lets you pick up and move objects in photos super easily.
