Welcome to my visual diary. This blog will probably just end up filled with my thoughts on books I have read, ads I have seen, nice packaging I’ve disovered – all collected in one place so I have somewhere to look back at inspiration

The images were created as a sales campaign at Galeries Lafayette department store in Paris. Galeries Lafayette is home to a breathtakingly beautiful domed ceiling that Couderc and Vauchez certainly made the most of.
