Danilo Nedić – Focused Skateboard Woodworks – “The squaredown” ~ 2025 – ArtDecko Wall Art

"The squaredown" is part of the ArtDecko wall art series by Danilo Nedić, founder of Dutch Design studio Focused Skateboard Woodworks based in Rotterdam. This wall art serie is inspired by the classic tile patterns from the Art Deco art movement of the 1920s and 1930s. After experimenting with translating recycled skateboard veneers into these patterns, Danilo discovered a bigger world of geometry behind them with endless possibilities. The experiment resulted in unique geometrical patterns that challenge and play with the viewer’s senses. The colourful skateboard veneers give depth to every pattern, creating three-dimensional effects that change every time you look at the artwork. This way every ArtDecko artwork embodies the playful, wayward and creative spirit of skateboarding.Made from recycled skateboards, this piece is inspired by the legendary Cube Houses in Rotterdam — a true architectural icon just a stone’s throw from skatepark West-Blaak and surrounded by classic street spots. This piece is a tribute to a landmark in the heart of his hometown.ONE-OFFEvery ArtDecko artwork has its own unique color pattern and is only made once.SIZE80,0 x 69,5 cm (H xW).FINISHOil and hard wax.ARTISTDanilo Nedić (founder Focused)YEAR2025
