Destination write-up
Here’s the write-up that features on your print.
Lagos, where history whispers through ancient streets and the ocean's rhythm provides a soothing soundtrack, is a city that captures the essence of Nigeria's vibrant spirit. This bustling metropolis, perched along the Gulf of Guinea, offers a unique blend of tradition and modernity. Its streets pulse with life, as the vibrant colors of traditional fabrics mix with the gleam of skyscrapers in the tropical sun. Here, the past and future intersect harmoniously.
Lagosians are known for their warmth and resilience. In the bustling markets, where the air is filled with the aromas of street food like suya and jollof rice, you'll find a microcosm of Nigeria's diverse culture. Artisans craft intricate beadwork and textiles, while musicians infuse the city with Afrobeat rhythms, a genre born in this very place.
For history enthusiasts, Lagos Island is a treasure trove. The Brazilian Quarter, with its colorful colonial-era houses, tells the story of the Afro-Brazilian returnees who settled here in the 19th century.
Print size & quality
Every piece is printed on thick, 175gsm fine-art matte paper with archival inks — so the colours stay rich, deep and true for years, with no fading and no fuss. Before it heads your way, it's wrapped in soft tissue to keep it scratch-free and sent out in a sturdy kraft tube or a robust triangular kraft box (never plastic).
Available sizes
Framing options
Fancy it ready to hang? Add a solid pine frame — sturdy, handsome and built to last. Take your pick from black, natural wood, or white. Each one is 20–25mm deep and 10–14mm wide: the sweet spot between strength and understated good looks.
We finish every frame with shatterproof, crystal-clear plexiglass to keep your print pristine — and it arrives already framed, so it goes straight from the box to your wall with no faff.
Framing is available for these sizes: A4, A3, A2, A1, 8x10, 11x14, 12x16, 12x18, 16x20, 18x24, 20x28, 24x32, 24x36 and 28x40.
