Design Porn: Memorypapers



Earlier today, while looking out of my window at the rain, I discovered this rainy London photo on Memorypapers. London isn't exactly short of a rainy day or seven, but this image makes the rain look rather dreamy.


They've called themselves 'the home of new photography' and I really like what they're doing. Not only are the images in their Bouf shop pretty special, but they're all limited edition. I sometimes wonder if limited edition is a bit of a swizz. Only 1000 of something?! Wow that's erm... well not that special at all, really.



But Memorypapers on print 30 of each image. That's when limited edition seems a little more special, rather than a nifty sales tactic.


I can't stop staring at this image. Everything about it is arresting. Especially the freckles. There's so much texture.


This Southbank print is my favourite, the blue hues are totally divine. Prices for the photographs start at £70 and I can't wait to see what new images they've got coming up. It's a fantastic way to discover new photographers and invest in some art that no one else will have.
