Blank Canvas: Paris Versus New York

Filed under: ,

What's more intimidating than a big empty wall? The endless options of photographs, drawings, screenprints and shadowboxes out there. We're making it a little easier by zeroing in on our favorites.

We've been following illustrator Vahram Muratyan's blog Paris Versus New York, a tally of two cities ever since it first launched last fall. The blog is a personal side project for Vahram who is Parisian and a co-founder of the design studio ViiiZ. For his blog, he comes up with charming and witty illustrations that pinpoint the cultural differences between Paris and New York--tiny espresso cups vs. Americanos served in big cups; Amélie Poulain vs. Carrie Bradshaw.

As someone who appreciates art with a little tongue-in-cheek humor, I was thrilled to find out that a dozen of his web-only illustrations have recently become available for purchase as art prints for the home.


I love how all the prints are so colorful and graphic and also especially clever and cheeky. Whether or not you're a fan of the two cities, every print captures an observation of French and American life so well, you'll definitely find yourself grinning and smiling at many of Vahram's references. Each print ranges in price from $29 for a mini size to $59 for an extra-large one.
