The Stunning Beauty Of London Floors Or Why You Should Look Down While Travelling

327

ADVERTISEMENT

After having discovered the stunning variety of floors in Paris, Venice, and Barcelona, I got a new opportunity to reveal the magnificent variety of floors of yet another European metropole.

The last June Pixartprinting called me again to go to London to take pictures of the floors of many emblematic monuments and fantastic restaurants.

It was a great week where I had the opportunity to meet interesting people, as the food influencer Leyla Kazim and Sarka Babicka, the design blogger Geraldine Tan and the Lifestyle influencer Tun Shin Chang. I will never forget the mosaic floors of the Bank of England, the huge floor design at The Bibendum restaurant or the dinner I enjoyed with Pixartprinting in Rok Restaurant.

Today, I am glad to show you London Floors, the fourth and the last city of the amazing floors series that consist in exploring cities through its floors to create a very specific and creative photographic report. With these pictures, Pixartprinting has built a graphic map of the city offering a new perspective for the visitors and for curious people.

    I was thinking about the same thing. Wide lens? tripod? He is very tall? or somebody else is helping with taking photos? And the colour of his shoes matches with the mosaic colour/pattern. Just curious :D

    9 years ago Created by potrace 1.15, written by Peter Selinger 2001-2017

    yes i try to match the shoes with floors as best as possible. So i tend to carry a spare pair of shoes with me most of the time (sometimes even more pairs)
