You're in luck because artist **Federico Babina** has done just that. This isn't the first time he tried to [draw buildings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crafted-world-exhibition-1), as he has done renderings in the past to imitate what some buildings would look like if they were designed by [famous artists](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/surreal-street-art-1) like Picasso, Salvador Dali or Joan Miro. You can check some of his other work at his website at [federicobabina.com](http://federicobabina.com).
