Today in your dose of “WOW” factor, Viennese/Croatian design collective Numen/For Use — which is comprised of Sven Jonke, Christoph Katzler and Nikola Radeljković — create impressive webs in outdoor and indoor spaces using tape.
Fast Company immediately made the association to Spider Man for these fantastical creations but I think they look like an incredible architectural experiment, like a wacky architect’s drawing come to life. The fact that they can be climbed into also makes them feel like a sci-fi form of furniture.

For their installation inside Odeon, the former Vienna stock exchange turned performance venue, the group used nearly 117,000 feet and 100 pounds of tape.
