Photographing Curtain Walling & Contemporary Architectural Design Exteriors at Leeds College Of Building

I recently had the opportunity to photograph the brand new Leeds College Of Building premises in Leeds City Centre. I worked with Metal Technology to show off the curtain walling solutions they had provided for the build.

The feature that struck me first about this building was the deep, green exterior window reveals. These greatly contrasted the red brick that made up the majority of the exterior. This along with the other variations made on the dimensions of the windows around the building, made for a great subject to photograph.

The building was split in to two distinct sections - the main 'sit down' learning and office environment which is characterised by the red brick and green reveals and the workshop area which is seen coming in to frame to the left below, where a dark grey brick is used along the South West side, while the North East side is covered in translucent walling panels. 

The building also uses a traditional industrial roof line which fits the area and purpose of the building, while being distinctive.

Blog Update: I'm Back!

It's been a very busy few months for me and thus I've struggled to make the time to keep this blog up to date. I've had the opportunity to shoot in Tuscany, Italy along with trekking through the alps for 4 days and been up and down the country shooting architecture.

I arrived on time to make sure the sunlight was at the right spot for the image and shot a few brackets. For one of the compositions, a lady also conveniently walked past my camera right on cue  to add some foreground interest and motion to the frame
