A little bit steampunk, a little bit post apocalyptic and a lot of drugs (just kidding), and you've got some very imaginative art. These are compositions of residences made from everyday machines like coffee pots and sprinklers. Prior to the Habitat Machines, he created a collection of factories (as opposed to residences) called Industrial Parkland, those are included in this post as well.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Habitat Machines, 2008</span></span><br /><br />Waffle Iron Heights:<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrovD9ukvNjGZ0rq4Y3BA_4cQs1ZRRE41FvYGqCrZYXyP2yU5rbHlciVVlzYpYWVLAoZ2GuH2olzpTc38x4ZZuxXkPpUOmnyATiKRrx_CYi7grmmFG7CIcFLg3Q5UifDjpkovlKCWYg6O6/s1600-h/Picture+7.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306855468384119778" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrovD9ukvNjGZ0rq4Y3BA_4cQs1ZRRE41FvYGqCrZYXyP2yU5rbHlciVVlzYpYWVLAoZ2GuH2olzpTc38x4ZZuxXkPpUOmnyATiKRrx_CYi7grmmFG7CIcFLg3Q5UifDjpkovlKCWYg6O6/s400/Picture+7.png" style="cursor: pointer;
