Inspirations behind our work from graphic identity to fine art geometry 🇮🇹 Designed in over 900 years ago, Renaissance architecture in #Florence is a fine work of art. Constructed in 1059 and took over 69 years to built, #FlorenceBaptistery is a bold contemporary work celebrating the symphony of shapes, forms and colors through iconic octagonal architecture.

This is a copy of Lorenzo Ghiberti bronze doors of the Florence Baptistery, which Michelangelo called the Gates of Paradise; which inspired Auguste Rodin's The Gates of Hell. What I find interesting is the second iteration is the more famous one than the original, something @the_alex_white spoke about on twitter. Just because something isn't original or reuses or reimagines other ideas doesn't make it bad. It is just the nature of art and creation. Isn't everything just a copy? A second or third version? It doesn't make it any less special. If anything I can appreciate when inspiration comes from.

I can't believe I waited until the last possible to second to go inside here, but this is the beautiful Battistero di San Giovanni, located right across from Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral. Check out the ceiling mosaic, depicting the Last Judgment, as well as everything else about this spectacular piece of art-itecture.
