Ahmed Mansouri’s pixelated illustrations of little spaces are delicious

Pixlbanana is the brainy-artsy project of Moroccan software engineer and designer Ahmed Mansouri, honed over 6 years of formal practice.

Images from Pixlbanana’s Instagram

Since its beginning, the project has ranged from figures to landscapes to cars to recreations of game scenes.

The first thing I was reminded of when I saw these juicy images was the work of the 1997 German pixel art team eBoy. That classical isometric style is hard to mistake. But this work feels more subtle.

Loads of fun details and incredible attention to lighting.

The project, under the name Benny, can be found on Instagram and Twitter.
