A couple of weeks ago, renown muralist David Choe painted the entire Facebook offices in Palo Alto. Andrew of Outer Edge Studio was there hanging out with David and shot a bunch of photos of his murals which Andrew posted to The Giant forums.

Thanks to Chris LLorca for the tip!

Yes, yes, yes, very nice indeed. But I think decoration of the workplace should be left for the workers themselves to take care of. Just have a look at this blog full of good examples of the great artwork that happens in workplaces…

Superb. David Choe is no one trick pony. He constantly impresses me.

There was a great interview in a Juxtapoz earlier this year.

I’m a huge David Choe fan, and when I saw these pictures I had to spread the works of art. I really like the fact that companies are still able to cut loose from time to time and really do something creative.

Moving out to the Bay Area in July, and Facebook is on my radar. I get a good vibe from the Facebook team, and I stand behind them 100%.

I’m a huge fan too! David Choe’s work can also be seen on the walls of a salon named, 5 Color Cowboy, in San Jose. Really amazing stuff.

I had no idea the 5 color cowboy stuff was Davids. I knew I liked that place for a reason!

I just came across these pictures from Choe’s blog… with pictures that weren’t posted on the original forum post, or the link to the facebook album either.
