Illustration Work by Kerby Rosanes
Philippines-based illustrator Kerby Rosanes works mainly with ordinary black pens to magically illustrate his “doodle” world.
The 23-year old artist considers his art as a personal hobby which
turned out to be his part-time freelance work after being recognized by
various design blogs, international magazines and online communities.
Most of his works are characterized by whimsical lines, patterns,
characters and little elements that are spontaneously combined to create
massive compositions depicting his everyday experiences or anything
that inspires him.

Regional Court and Industrial Tribunal, nothern suburbs of Paris (France)
The theme of the project is accessible justice. This is an unostentatious public building within the urban fabric. We opted for modest, elegant exterior architecture, preferring a facing in brick, a timeless material which becomes more attractive with age. This choice also enables the building to blend in with its immediate surroundings. The treatment of the entrance, worked as a lateral hollow on the main façade, constitutes a break with the traditional symmetrical composition of court buildings. From the outside, this entrance – on a single level – is on a modest scale.
