I totally love this. Glenn Leitch principal at Highland Associates renovated Playboy's (soon to be shuttered) midtown Manhattan office. Check out the "magazine wall" in the reception area - which Glenn credits with getting them hired to do the job - made up of 15,000 Playboy magazines. They were glued and stapled into 14-inch-high blocks, then routed to create tongue-and-groove connections and further supported by hidden steel tubes (see article and more photos of the office here). I love that how when you just glance at it it seems like a painting (or some other sort of art) or even a quilt. Completely awesome!

That is VERY cool. I'm always trying to think of ways to use books and book jackets as "art" -- hadn't thought to turn magazines into bricks. Love it!
