Shopfront Elegy

Shopfront Elegy  is a blog that is dedicated to British commercial and industrial facades. For over 20 years, Vici MacDonald has been photographing interesting old shopfronts and commercial facades from around the UK – the proud, the fading, the forgotten, the plain bonkers.

She also has a book and a lovely Instagram account.
