Street signs and advertising in Paris

Text written in: English

a work in progress - my friend Rebekah asked me to take some photos of the advertising in Paris... It's actually quite hard to find examples of billboards and brands that are similar, I think because the French are very strict regulators. They have laws which make it difficult to set up franchises or any large business which drives our the small independent shops. Advertising outside the metro is very minimalist and doesn't take up much of the eye.

I will take some shots in the metro soon of the billboards.
