Octopus skate pool

A skate pool in Lugano, Switzerland has been painted with a giant octopus mural by art collective, Nevercrew.

C'mon, how amazing does this look?

Nevercrew have also made their own tribute to Where the Wild Things Are. Take a look at it on their blog.

You can even download it as a wallpaper, yeah!

  • Looks good... but any more than four skaters at a time riding that thing and it will be a death trap.
