ANGLES I met Laurian Ghinitoiu in 2013 through a friend while they were studying at the Dessau Institute of Architecture (DIA) at the historic Bauhaus building in Dessau, Germany. Having both made the leap into freelancing as photographers at the same time, it has been fascinating following Laurian's path, which has led him to be commissioned to photograph architecture designed by the biggest international firms and publications. In this interview, I ask Laurian to reflect on his meandering journey as an architectural photographer, his approach to photographing high profile buildings, and what he believes his photography says about the built environment.
