Known for their unique combo of kawaii and grotesque imagery, this pair of self-taught Sao Paolo designers — who go by Julio and Gringo — cover everything with images that seem to squish and bend together, filling up entire pages like the knotted intestines of our over-stuffed culture. Asked why they always fill the whole page, the duo wrote:

It’s what makes it fun, in the final piece and in the way we work. We don’t really draw that well, but when it’s all crammed up and chaotic it looks much sweeter.

To see how fun that chaos is as they work, watch the video below as they slowly fill up an entire room with their careful, distinctive doodles. Full disclosure, they’ve worked for MTV! (Don’t we have great taste?) Check out their website here.
