Geometrive works best in architectural photography, photo: Marek Sutkowski

It enables you to portray real objects in an unreal way. Sometimes these are but subtle changes, quite invisible at first glance. However, the obtained result might defy common sense and well-established physical laws. We are talking about geometrive – a technique originated by Marek Sutkowski, Ph.D. from the Faculty of Electronics and Information Technology.
