Retro bathroom in a Gaudy designed building | Limited Edition of 10
As I stepped into this whimsically designed building, a curious blend of styles greeted me, somewhere between the modern and the baroque. The façade hinted at a playful dance between eras, an architectural escapade waiting to be explored.
Inside, a retro bathroom caught my eye. The mirror, in particular, seemed to be a portal to another time. Its golden frame, adorned with ornate motifs, set against a backdrop of vintage tiles, narrated tales of design epochs meshing. The simplicity of the white sink beneath it provided a calming balance to the gaudy aesthetics surrounding it.
The reflection in the mirror carried a quiet dialogue between the outside world and the quaint charm enclosed within these walls. Each tile on the wall had a story etched, perhaps of times when design transitioned, embraced more, yet held onto the essence of the past.
The photograph encapsulates a moment where time seemed to pause, allowing the past and the present to share a quiet dialogue. This building, nestled in an area known for its eclectic architectural styles, stands as a testament to the ever-evolving narrative of design, a gentle nod to the whimsical and the earnest.
The journey of capturing this image was akin to traversing through layers of design history, each layer revealing a bit more, a bit new, yet a bit familiar. It’s a visual narrative of how styles can mesh, converse, and coexist, reflecting the ever-evolving ethos of design.

Limited Edition of 10
This photograph is released as a signed and numbered limited edition of only 10 prints in total across all available sizes combined—not 10 prints in each size.
Every size is drawn from the same edition. Whether the photograph is purchased as a small print or at the largest available size, it uses one of the 10 edition numbers.
I personally sign and number each print on the reverse, and every print is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity recording its title, dimensions, medium, edition number, and date of issue.
Once all 10 prints have been sold, the edition will be permanently closed. No additional numbered editions of the photograph will be produced in another size or format.
Premium Archival Fine Art Prints
I personally produce every photograph using archival pigment inks on premium archival paper with a subtle luster finish.
The paper provides rich tonal depth, excellent fine-detail reproduction, and a refined surface that reduces distracting glare under normal indoor lighting. It is especially well suited to both color and black-and-white photography.
Each photograph is sold as an unframed fine art print, allowing it to be framed according to the collector’s space and personal style.
Before a print leaves my studio, I carefully inspect it for color, tonal accuracy, surface quality, and overall presentation. Nothing is outsourced, and every finished print passes through my hands.
Worldwide Delivery Included
Every print is personally produced, inspected, signed, numbered, and carefully packaged by me at my studio in Haliburton, Ontario, Canada.
Worldwide delivery is included in the listed price, so there is no additional shipping charge added during checkout. I select an appropriate tracked delivery service based on the destination, print size, and current shipping requirements.
Delivery times vary by destination and may be affected by customs processing or circumstances beyond my control.
Because I also travel extensively to create new photographic work, studio dispatch may occasionally be delayed while I am away. When that happens, the print will be produced and shipped as soon as I return to the studio.
