Madrid-based street artist Spy — whose work we spotted over on Design You Trust — creates clever pieces that are all about surprise. Mining the city for unlikely canvases, he transforms everyday (and often abandoned) urban locales into something brand new: a skate ramp becomes an indoor soccer field; an old swing set is reborn as a classic desk toy; a “Walk/Don’t Walk” sign is revamped with a third “Hail a Taxi” option. Click through for photos of some of his most amusing interventions.
