Old Photographs




There's something about old photographs that I love. It's not just the people in the picture that are interesting to look at but it's the buildings and cars and things going on behind them that catch my attention.

Nature



I think nature is a great source of inspiration. I think it's even better when you can incorporate architecture and buildings into nature as one. (for instance, Frank Lloyd Wright's Falling Waters House)

1950's Architecture


I love modern looking buildings like this house built in the 1950s. It looks clean and simple.

Black and white


Black and white photography is also inspirational. It shows that you don't have to use color to be bold or powerful.

Cityscapes




I always enjoy looking at pictures of cityscapes because of the way the lights look against the dark sky.
