Callum Morton has worked with fellow members of the Melbourne-based group UDL (Sean Elstob, Nick Hubicki, and Tim Wid) to digitally transform images of modernist private homes into what look like retail and restaurant establishments. Morton and his team constructed this image with a combination of computer software applications (Auto Cad, 3-D Studio Max, Illustrator and Photoshop) to produce what he refers to as a “collision of lifestyles.”
