STUDIO ESINAM PRINTS

 as you know, i am currently obsessing over anything that was born/made/thought of in the country called sweden. and i do love a good print. add to that a graphic architectural detail and you have made hena a very happy person. studio esinam is a graphic studio based in goteborg and they create fabulous stories through their unique graphics and characters which define the sense of space they portray in their work. i feel their prints are not literal but the interpretation of the artist who saw certain aspects of the city or space in a very unique way. i wonder what i would create if i were to define a certain landscape into something abstract. maybe that can be on my "to do" summer list along with "draw saad's portrait". i digress. their drawings are a study of facades and details of buildings and spaces we might have seen but in these prints you get a sense of paired down simplicity. and what beautiful, crisp styling.

  their work is divided into three sections: stories, prints and space. in the own words below.

prints

in our first print series elevations, we seek to capture the unique feeling of various cities around the world. cities that most of us have some kind of relation to, but probably haven’t seen in the format of the architectural drawing. by studying the façades, directing attention to details that mostly pass unnoticed, we hope to touch upon qualities to the architecture that contribute to the specific feeling the city imposes on you. when working with this series we try to let the craftsmanship of the drawing itself be the creative drive,allowing for new perspectives to arise along the way. Not so much working with intellectual concepts of what we think about the city, but rather just freely exploring one aspect of it, in this case its façade.the prints can be purchased in our web shop or through retailers around the world.

stories

in this section we explore interesting spaces and buildings around us through short stories. the first story will be posted in june 2014. Every new story will focus on a different aspect of space and architecture. 

the studio was founded by art director and architect duo Josefine Lilljegren and Sebastian Gokah

in the spring of 2013. see more here!

i hope you all are enjoying this gorgeous (cool) summer weather. 

have a great weekend!
