Dutch street artist Frankey has always had a fascination with bubblegum and has created artworks around the concept with the latest being the Hubbabubbabuilding. This marks the second edition of the bubblegum exhibitions, following Gumballin. The Hubbabubbabuilding is in the Netherlands and is a part of Street Art Zandovary 2025.
It boasts a whimsical design language, taking an ordinary house and alters it into a cartoon-like style. There is a facade which has a large pink bubblegum sphere bursting through the walls and windows of the home. At the top of the ladder just beside the roof is a character wearing a red knit hat and blowing into the chimney, indicating that he is blowing the bubbles.
