The Tower Series depicts three fantasy skyscrapers, each intended to explore a different architectural scenario.
"Through drawing, I try to convey my obsession with civilisation," explains Toby Melville-Brown. "I'm not commenting on environmental issues, nor condemning our excessive nature; I'm merely fascinated with the synthetic landscape we have constructed around ourselves."

Favela Arch presents an entire city's worth of buildings piled up as a single structure, as a way to overcome a scarcity of land. Melville-Brown describes it as "like barnacles clinging to a rock".
Regency Tower is intended as an oversized trophy, celebrating the ingenuity of mankind, while Power Station is an industrial building on a mega scale.

"Each explores a different facet as to why we build the way we do," adds Melville-Brown.
The artist is selling 30 limited edition screen-prints of Tower Series from The Print Club in London.
