It’s probably the only country in the world you won’t find a McDonald’s, but aside from that why are we all so obsessed with North Korea. Ok, so their government is a little…different…and it’s not exactly the place people are lining up to go on holiday to – but we must admit, from their towering statues to unique way of displaying artwork, the little country is a fascinating place!
However, it’s not just hammers and sickles that are dominating design in North Korea. There’s also a really interesting movement going on with their interiors and it looks like something out of a Wes Anderson movie… Tumblr account North Korean Interiors documents this phenomenon perfectly so with that said, we have a little game for you…
