Shanghai


Set in the M50 complex, this simple photography gallery shares a space with Osoi Design and sells abstract photos. Many present close-ups of the geographic lines seen on urban complexes in Shanghai – from tower blocks to colourful structures around the city, often highlighting the beauty in the mundane. They go for around ¥1500 to ¥2000 each.
