With our stunning Architecture exhibition out on tour at the moment it has got us all thinking about how buildings have been a popular source of inspiration ever since photography was first invented. Throughout the 20th century architectural photography became increasingly creative as photographers began to experiment with contrast, light, shadows, textures, reflections and perspective.

We recently stumbled across this incredible post from the guys over at Bored Panda about Photographer Massimo Listri who goes around the World in search of the most beautiful libraries and had to share it with you.

Our exhibition is on show from October 17th to November 11th and features a powerful catalogue of striking images that depict all aspects of architecture and help us to recognise the beauty that can be found in the smallest of details. Full dates and locations can be found HERE.
