Storefronts


Storefronts.... I am constantly examining little
details about everything, my mind is swerving in
all directions. and it clicks... which brings me to
storefronts. i love the art. rhythm. odds. limitation.
obscurity. signage. placement.in storefront design.
The balance the store plays on another
element. rhythm. the door. the frame. hardware.
The beauty in a mistake. what makes good art might
indeed be a thoughtless decision.. a little rough
around the edges. I wont go inside. the reality.
maybe this is the way i view life. Just because
something might be beautiful from the outside,
doesn't necessarily mean it will be beautiful on the inside.

  1. It's great little things like that inspire you to reflect on beauty...Most of the time I am so focused on the point A to point B that all the things you highlighted escape my view and just take the backseat to my purpose for being there.

    Perhaps I should take more time to reflect on those little things...
