STATION 01

VINTAGE PRESS
STUDIO

The old newspaper, the prescription slip, the black-and-white set, the Fotolab counter. You don’t leave with a photo here, you leave with something that looks like it was printed years ago and found again.

One session, four printed formats. Every one carries the masthead, and the subject is always (You).
THE FEELING
Nostalgic, editorial, mysterious.
An old magazine you found in a film archive.
01

Printed, not posted

Everything off this station is set in columns and run through a press treatment, broadsheet, poster, prescription slip. Paper stock behaviour, not a filter.

02

Black and white first

The set is lit for mono. Colour is the exception here, not the default, which is what lets a shot taken this afternoon read as an archive frame.

03

You are the story

The masthead is real, the headline is not, and the photograph running four columns wide is you. That joke is the whole editorial premise.

THE ROOM

WHERE STATION 01 SITS

The press studio is the right-hand end of the floor: the poster wall, the framed prints and the record shelves. Everything the station prints is pinned up in the room that prints it.
