A little while back when the Stussy World Tour was heavily in effect they picked up what is known as “The Blu House” and contracted some well known artists to put a creative touch into the place. Well forget about the interior decorations it seems as if world renowned graffiti artist KR handled the outside decorations.

KR used his signature Krink drip style on the mail box and then paint blasted the outside of the Blu House with multiple colors which breathed some life into this Venice estate. Also painting one room inside the house you see a mesh of colors ranging from army green to mustard yellow, covering the ceiling and dripping down the walls. An impressive job by KR to say the least who also most recently painted the Nike Sports Wear store on Mercer street in New York. Other artists who contributed work to the Blu House include Kaws and Reas to name a few. Below is a quote on the Blu House taken from the Supertouch Blog:
Legendary streetwear label Stüssy celebrated the culmination of its inspired “Worldwide Tour” apparel campaign—which saw more than 40 artists including KAWS, Pushead, Neck Face, Eric Elms, HAZE, José Parla, and Futura lending their style to one of the brand’s most iconic vintage t-shirt designs—with a VIP-only art show and release party for the new Worldwide Tour Nike shoe collaboration on Friday nite. Featuring murals painted by KAWS & REAS and a fresh psychedelic paint job on the house care of KR”
Although it’s closed now the Blu House is located at 523 Ocean Front Walk, Venice, California
