Jardin's work reminds me of the Channel 4 advert where the number 4 from a specific angle during the advert is both seen as a number and also of constituent parts, here is an example of one of the Channel 4 images:
More of which can be seen here:

The following 2 images are from Dujardin's series "Fictions" and these remind me of the above style of images:
These two images above I could see existing following the building to plans from an architect creating his vision against traditionalist styles
Like Allchurch's Urban Chioruscuro series, ethically the viewer is not being mislead that these images are real, they can be seen as digital creations. I note in the first image above there is an issue of perspectives; the entrance at the bottom left of the building does not have the same perspective of facing is the top left of the image or its vertical tower, I wonder why this was since its not hard to miss?
Through this style of images Dujardin in his own words is playing at being an architect through digital images that he has taken and then through digital manipulation creating something of "fiction".
