Banking in photos

Posted: November 12th, 2008 | Author: Iancu | Filed under: design, photography | 4 Comments »

Typical Murphy, after working on at least four design projects concerning banking (finance, to be more precise) in one form or another, after spending days scavanging for related pictures on the internet, after asking friends to risk getting arrested photographing banks while on vacation abroad, it took one random search through Flickr to find the banking in photos group.

So, if you need examples of fascias, interiors, ATM’s, window treatments etc, that’s the place. Feel free to add your photos, obviously :)

and last but not least, a “supermarket” bank (they’ll probably have to downgrade to street kiosks due to the financial crisis, though :P)

    That’s my fav too, but I think it’s because it’s so “british” in everything, from the Gill Sans typeface to the building. And because of the weather, of course :))

    Well, my all-time fav is the former Postbank, now part of ING. Dutch design still remains amazing, always refreshing :)
