Streets of Paris

Streets of Paris bundles the work of over 40 photographers who roam the thousands of Parisian `rues' to capture multiple, contemporary points of view of this dynamic world capital. The photographers, both Paris natives and international visitors alike, often draw on their strong social media presence. Unique views of the city's famous landmarks like the Sacre-Coeur, the Louvre Museum, and the Eiffel Tower reveal an evocative city portrait. Lively areas overflowing with art and fashion, as well as lesser-known impressions of the city's banlieues, are all captured with a present- day attention to detail and a wide-eyed love for "la Ville Lumiere".Biographie de l'auteurAt the heart of MENDO is the love of pure design. Before establishing the inspirational concept store and go-to flagship bookstore for style-conscious bibliophiles in Amsterdam in 2002, founders Roy Rietstap and Joost Albronda were accomplished graphic designers with an eye for innovation and entrepreneurship. Thus, a brilliant retail concept was created in the form of the MENDO of today. The collaboration of teNeues x MENDO is a synergy on many levels-a premier international publisher of illustrated books on culture combining with trendsetting designers with a great love for beautiful, asthetically-minded books- housed in a one-of-a-kind global bookstore. If you look closely, you will see that the simple, elegant black walls are actually made of precise stacks of books-an idea that is typical Amsterdam!
