HUES OF ART DECO
The relationship between?photography and architecture?can be traced back to the time when?documentation?methods were required and updated and photography provided an automatic alternative to clicking an image of a building. As primitive as these methods were, they captured basic information such as?lines, surfaces, and tones.
Today hyper-realistic photographs have changed the way photography is being used in architecture. It provides almost?real-life images?of what the building would look like. But oftentimes, to untrained eyes, a photograph needs to have a certain?play with angles, tones, and lighting to narrate a story?of the building. These pictures help guide the viewer's eyes to key features. Narrowing down the various types of buildings a person could narrate a story about, from the most complex and abstract forms to the most simple buildings, we combine both these facets into setting the theme of Art Deco buildings.?
The competition brief aims to capture 5 images of an art deco building that narrate the designers' thoughts and intentions in them.?
The picture story can bring out the various unnoticed elements and criticisms of the art deco building.
