Commercial Paper Sculpture by Ollanski
You might recall the animated paper sculpture of Cris Wiegandt. Recently Cris let me know that she and Oliver "Ollanski" Bieräugel, a Berlin-based paper engineer and illustrator, had collaborated on a new project for Nöjesguiden.

They were commissioned to create a paper craft illustration for the Swedish young adult magazine's March cover. Hem ljuva hem means home sweet home, and the theme of the issue is the housing sector crisis in Sweden.
Interestingly, Ollanski graduated from Karolinska Institute in Stockholm where he studied Biomedicine with a specialization in Molecular Neurobiology. Six years ago, he left his PhD position at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics in Berlin to pursue a lifelong passion for drawing, painting, and building the type of dimensional paper craft models you see here.
Just like movie scenes that are left on the cutting room floor, the colorful paper flowers at the lower corners didn't make it onto the final cover, but this next image shows more of Ollanski's spring blooms on Milk X magazine's March calendar page.
As a freelance illustrator and paper artist, he is represented by Cosmopola in Germany and ArtAssociates in the Netherlands. Ollanski says his main goal is to get better and better and better. This city scene looks quite detailed and impressive to me!
He was "...commissioned to create a set of
illustrations about the young New York architecture firm SHoP, who in
turn are about to change the skyline of New York City by building many
new innovative buildings: from a Camera Obscura in a NYC park to the
reconstruction of old industry buildings, turning them into modern condos
to tall landmark skyscrapers - SHoP does it all.", for Fast Company magazine.
Ollanski created 3D house and man models for the November/December 2013 issue of Danish Ud & Se magazine to accompany text about Danish statistics.
One last example of his fine work is this winged unicorn created for a Nöjesguiden Believe special issue about spiritual art, the Illuminati, and modern day beliefs such as tarot and witchcraft.
Ollanski shows his work on Behance.
