- firstly I try to discover the soul of the building, some composition that is, in the same time, revealing a lot and hiding a lot. Like some people thought in the past that by taking a picture of someone you take his/her soul, thats what I am trying to do with the buildings I am shooting

- I use long exposure technique; the passage of time is in contrast with the stillness of the structures; the clouds on the sky become simple stripes of shadow and light, negative space for the building

- I use B&w conversion, removing the realism given by the colour; it might be that photography existed only in monochrome in the past, but we all see in colour, and a B&W conversion can be a level of abstractization for many people

- I paint the light in post processing, revealing shapes, planes and interactions between architectural elements. I dodge and burn to attract attention of the viewer to some particular elements with the help of strong contrasts With these steps, I transform the architecture work into my vision. The project features architecture from Copenhagen, Malmo, Berlin, London and Athens and I plan to add more in the next few years.
