Motifo: Magnetic Pixel Turns Your Fridge Into Art

By Alex in Art, Gadgets, Hacks & Mods, Home & Garden on May 31, 2009 at 7:00 am

Peter Locke created a set of colored magnets called Motifo that act as giant pixels to turn your fridge into a works of art:

Each mosaic design has been specially crafted to use the same combination of pieces, so every mosaic can be made with the 1296 pieces included in each motifo pack. If you want to create a new design, just rearrange the pieces.

If I’m not afraid that they’d swallow the small pieces outright, this would be a blast for my kids! Link – via Funfurde

As a fellow artist named Locke, and a huge fan of mosaic, as well as owning a refrigerator, I find myself drawn to this in at least 4 ways.

I would love to meet this Peter Locke, and talk mosaics. Gimme a call, Pete!

Kids do swallow stuff. I shouldn’t worry about it, if I were you. While we were being told about the dangers of Lego our daughter was in the garden eating gravel.

The whole kids swallowing magnets thing is a pretty hot topic, though.
Seriously, if you have enough time to do this, you shouldn’t have kids.

Your kids sounds like retards. Did you drop them on their heads or something?

@Amanda F.

I think not enough kids are dropped on their head, nothing teaches better then a bad experience.

On a side note, when I first saw the image for some reason I thought of this.
