I've opened a print shop with a selection of my photos :

Some more photos from Aiguablava.

Loving these tones in Georges Damblier's fashion images from the 50s.

a weekend on the costa brava

Over our long weekend staying at Aiguablava, much time was spent on our balcony watching the changing light & cloud formations over the Med. Highly recommended.

vinçon

Vinçon is a huge design shop in Barcelona. It's housed in what looks like an art deco building on one of the main shopping streets. What's really clever about it, is that the furniture is displayed in rooms with all the original tiled & parquet flooring, wooden shutters and pannelling. You wander between rooms in such a way that it's almost like being in someone's (albeit very stylish) flat. Then there's the roof terrace, where you look out to the back of Gaudi's Casa Milà.

Spot the posing bird in the last image. I kept moving closer & closer to take a photo. He didn't fly off until I was practically touching him. I guess even the wildlife are laid back in Barcelona.

Lunch

We stopped for lunch in a tiny restaurante in Barcelona's old town. At the end of the meal, the owner brought us a plate of the most delicious goats cheese to try.

Less is More

It was very difficult narrowing my photos of Mies van der Rohe's Barcelona Pavilion down to only a few images. I could devote so many postings to this building. It's a perfect structure to photograph and to be in.
In the end I decided to pick a few details to show you. The luxury of the marble walls, the white leather chairs, the stainless steel cruciform pillars, the glass and the velvet of the red curtains, are all heightened by the simplicity of the architecture.
And yes I did buy the 'Less is More' tee-shirt in the bookshop.
