Nice Architectural Feature

Friday, February 12th, 2010

I always try to take photos of nice architectural features like the one below which I saw in JFK airport New York. This effective design allows light in through the roof, while also adding a visually pleasing aspect to the building, especially the order/pattern of the circular roof windows. Its a nice simple design feature.

Advertising Through The Ages

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

I remember taking this photograph thinking the illustration in The Sak advertisement was quite nice only to discover when looking closely at the photograph afterward, the old adverts on the buildings were for Handbags and Bags, which was quite funny as The Sak is primarily a Handbag brand. On reflection I really like the fonts used in the old advertisements on the side of the building – they look quite strong even today.
