Friday Photo Dump: 11 Photos Around Tokyo

Friday Photo Dump: 11 Photos Around Tokyo

posted by Foxwrth · 20 days ago

As a designer, one thing I love about Tokyo is that almost everything in this city has a brand identity and somehow it all works together. Street signs, cabs, maps, convenience stores, you name it.

I spent most days wandering around stumbling into random coffee shops ramen spots, and temples, jittery from espresso with a stomach full of noodles. When I pop out for a wander I always make sure to have my camera with me, because there is so much to see. When I left the States I brought my Sony A6000, and two lenses. Well, three, but I sadly lost one along the way. Out of the two lenses the pocket dispo lens is my favorite. It's basically a 3D printed mount with a disposable camera lens attached to it. All the photos you see here come from that little setup. In fact I don't think I've taken it off my camera yet.

Now I wouldn't call myself a photographer by any means. I just take photos of anything that makes me stop and think "that's dope." My subject matter is usually about color and texture and in this city that means I'm taking photos of everything because the whole city feels like one massive, well executed brand system. Comment if you have a favorite.
