Paul Eis is an 18 year old photographer and student based out of Berlin Germany. His series attempts to show there is more to these cities than white and grey facades, and believes the addition of color can help highlight the interesting and unique qualities of buildings.
All the photos are of buildings that are removed from their typical backdrop and placed in front of a bluish background. By cutting the buildings out he is able to make them look more imposing. He also uses alternating colored patterns rich in contrast to draw your eye in. All the vertical straight lines make for very stoic looking images.
I chose to share this series because it really shattered all the boundaries in terms of what I thought photography was. The heavy use of post production editing to impose a dazzling array of colors onto geometric buildings was a clever use of photography.
