Paris 2015


Paris - February 2015

My own photographs From time spent in Paris for our University trip to Premier Vision and time spent in the city. 

Ultramod

This magnificent haberdashery held an overwhelming collection of trims, ribbons, buttons and clasps and many other things besides in every colour, shape and size.   





The Opera House 

The classical Opera House in central Paris 



The Gallerie Lafayette

The stunning ceiling, with its opulent colours and structural detail. 



The Subway 

I loved the 1960's simplicity of the design on these subway seats.



Bon Marche

I loved the grid network of the tiles on the escalators and ceiling. 
They have been warped to follow the lines of the structure.The new collection Pacific Coast  has been an excellent colour inspiration for my own collection. 




Chartier

Our group meal...






The Louvre 

A few snaps from in side the wonderful exhibitions






The Louve - Pyramid 

The intricate structural feet of engineering has proved a huge inspiration to my wanting to design engineered knitted structures. 





The Pompidou Centre - Jeff Koon Exhibition  

The view of Paris form the top of the Pompidou Centre. Koon's use of colour and negative spaces in his work showed me different way colour could be used.









The Notre Dame

This magnificent building never ceases to amaze me with every visit.



The Eiffel Tower

Although raining the tower still made an impressive figure against the 
steely-grey backdrop 



The Gare de Nord 

I liked the simple angular space within the train station
