Black and egg yolk

Sean Scherer’s applied colour palette of black & egg reminded me of a Boston café I photographed back in 1996. As a trespasser of this café I was drawn to the yellow interiors and the black painted café façade. The paradox of the expression of the yellow painted inner wall and the restrained impression of the exteriors resulted in my curiosity and my effort to take the shot.

For the latest edition of the British Vogue the house of Jo Kornstein has been photographed. She is a Set Designer and co-owner of Howie & Belle, a vintage shop in the north west of London. In her bedroom Kornstein applied the same (attract & repel)  tricks. Have a close look at the photo with the black painted rear wall and the yellow accessories. The latter ones I retrieved at  her shop in antiques and curiosities. When I browsed through Howie and Belle I found some lovely stuff. Do see the last one with the glass case stuffed with lampshades.
