These magnetic pixels are the latest trend in kitchen magnets. They are little colored squares that you can use to create your own compositions.
Box of pixel magnets for decorating the fridge
Had these magnets existed in the 1960’s, no doubt painters such as Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein would have spent hours on end creating their own special pixilated designs.
Magnetic Pixels is the latest trend in fridge decor: they are made up of very small (10mmx10mm), square magnets in different colors that you combine to create compositions such as faces, objects, famous paintings, letters...
Can’t come up with a design? Here’s an idea: open a picture on your computer using Photoshop and use the zoom option to enlarge it to maximum size. Now all you have to do is imitate the result by copying the outline and colors of the pixels you see. It’ll take you a while, but the result is fascinating: the images are blurry and out of focus when you look at them up close, but they become clearer and sharper as you step away. It’s like a real photograph or, rather, like some impressionist painting.
Get yourself a box of these and start reproducing portraits like the Mona Lisa, pop drawings of superheroes, or use them to write your flat mates messages or to make the grocery list.
