A collaborative design studio, based between Marseille & London, founded in 2015. With a practice rooted in publication design, Loose Joints works closely with collaborators & artists on all stages of a project bringing their knowledge from publishing.

Based on a classic landscape tradition, carefully composed 5x4 photographs are given a special effect by increasing the color & composition. Especially in moments when the expected narrative is roughly often gross due to pollution or destruction of nature
