Released today by emerging Scottish publisher Lawson's Books, Anna et Salomé is a new body of work from Barcelona-based photographer Adrià Cañameras. Having previously issued Par Hasard, a 24-page monotone offset zine as part of Fibra's Sr. Dalton series, this title offered him the opportunity to explore a singular theme in more detail. Section sewn in a first edition of 500, with a cover produced in acrylic paint by seasoned artist Michael Docherty, the book's central focus is the Mediterranean. Developed from a personal project which allowed Cañameras to reflect on the environment he grew up around, the images were captured in various locations along the Costa Brava in Spain and on the French island of Corsica. Shot between June 2012 and March 2013 and described by the publisher as "part survey, part celebration and part meditation," Anna et Salomé functions on abstract and geological levels alike, representing an incredibly mature body of work that belies the photographer's years.

These photos were taken by Inventory Issue 05 contributor Adrià Cañameras for INDOORS; a new project by the Barcelona based ARQUITECTURA-G firm. The project is focused on the reformulation and reorganization of contemporary urban housing, by offering both design and furniture specific solutions. With strong ties to Apartamento magazine, which publishes frequent conversations and debates established by the firm in each issue, it's not hard to see the influence of both parties on one another. Adrià's photos meanwhile, beautifully capture the feeling of an evening spent indoors: with good company, soft light, and plenty of food.
