The Art Of Control

As someone who grew up in a city dominated by brutalist office and government buildings, I’ve got a real soft spot for Control’s art design, which we’re going to be showcasing in tonight’s Fine Art.

Below you’ll find a cross-section of some of the work that went into the game’s conception, production and marketing. It’s not everything from everyone involved in the project, but it’s enough to give you a good idea of where the ideas for the finished product came from.

If you can’t get enough of the game’s surreal atmosphere, perhaps you should check out the SCP Foundation, a community-run fiction archive that many speculated was an inspiration for Control.”]
