Urban Architecture Through the Lens - Part 12

Capturing City Landscapes

Michael Chen specializes in architectural photography, with a particular focus on how modern buildings shape our urban environments. His work explores the intersection of design, functionality, and cultural identity in cities around the world.

The Art of Perspective

“Architecture is frozen music,” Michael often quotes. His photographs play with lines, shadows, and reflections to reveal the hidden rhythms of buildings that most passersby never notice. Through careful composition and timing, he transforms ordinary structures into extraordinary visual experiences.

Technical Approach

Michael’s technical process involves extensive planning. He researches buildings thoroughly, studies sun patterns, and often visits locations multiple times to find the perfect angle and lighting conditions. While digital editing is part of his workflow, he strives to capture most elements in-camera.

His work has been featured in several prestigious design publications and exhibitions, bringing attention to both iconic landmarks and overlooked architectural gems in urban landscapes worldwide.
