With more Themes being added each month The Studio is an ever expanding collection of the world’s most cutting-edge art allowing you to turn your PS3 or PSP into a personalised digital gallery.
Check out the Themes that are releasing today below. First up here are2 very different Dynamic Theme for PS3 launching this week:
‘Typescape’ Dynamic Theme by Wallzo
‘Typescape’ is an exclusive theme for The Studio created by London-based designer Wallzo. This immersive artwork features 26 custom-built landscapes that are explored in real time 3D.
The piece is inspired by the aesthetics of classic 3D games like Virus, Sentinel and Frontier, where blocky vectors and bold colours created distinctive, beautiful worlds. Each letter landscape was individually modelled for the project by Wallzo, who invented the concept especially for the PlayStation and The Studio.

‘Deep Down’ Dynamic Theme by Merijn Hos
Merijn Hos, known under his alias Bfree, is an artist and illustrator from Utrecht, the Netherlands. He divides his time between working as a commercial illustrator and working on his own personal projects, exhibitions and independent publishing.
In this dynamic theme the Dutch Illustrator takes you to a world miles below see level. Deep Down the ocean is a dark but colorful world full of weird shaped plants, psychedelic fish, tropical shells and bubbles that blow your mind.

It’s a pity that very few actually compliment the XMB.
Most just totally dominate and make the interface harder to use.

Hey Adam Grant, does The Studio have (or know they have) permission to expand their services into music visualisation for the PS3′s Music Player?

I’ve raised this like I said to you but I gather it’s more complicated than simply starting creating them – that’s the easy part! I will keep mentioning it though.

Themes are a waste of money as they never get updated & when a new icon is added to the xmb it looks out of place.

James, have you any idea what the music is playing in the first video? Thanks.

It’s a piece of music created next door by our London Studios audio team, commissioned specially for this video. Do you like it?

hello,i am all for any additions to the console,and i allways check out every new theme released,if theres a preview, however i must admit i’ve yet to see one that i have bought,excluding the ones i get from ps plus, i have bought a couple of game related ones though,i must ask,is this/these themes finacially viable?.As there are now so many of them and more released frequently,surely a lot either go unsold or only sell a few.Still art is a strange thing. Best of luck either way.

@8 I did think it was pretty cool, which is why I asked. Shame it’s not commercially available though.

Whatever happened to all the free themes Plus members were going to get (one each month if I’m not mistaken)?
