Walking about and biking were the primary modes of transport in New Orleans as our crew would venture off into unexplored neighborhoods, documenting the city's charm one block at a time. We lived in the Bywater, where while walking it's decaying sidewalks, we'd often bump into people armed with their plastic cup of some boozy concoction. Block after bock, I was continually drawn to the architecture with it's vibrant color palette and French-inspired design. Some homes appeared to embody the entire spectrum of the rainbow with complex ornamentation that wrapped itself around every possible surface. Graffiti, old advertisements, and home-made signs made up the typography of the city at large, sometimes taking residence even in the sky. These are a few examples of what I chose to capture.
