The window displays at Galeries Lafayette’s home décor store (opposite their main department store) really caught our eye because of their animated images, but especially because they made our camera go completely crazy!

The Xmas 2011 window displays at Lafayette Maison are simply but cleverly done; transparent vertical bars containing LEDs show an animated image if you move back a little to see it, and through them you can still see the objects on display.

However, we soon found out that taking pictures of the displays was a real problem. We just couldn’t get our camera to focus! However, far from being frustrating, the effect was actually rather pleasing, amplifying the colours and giving a great abstract effect…Cela dit, en faisant un effort, on peut arriver à faire apparaître les vitrines, plutôt dépouillées, souvent avec des objets insolites…Mais finalement, c’est quand même l’effet de flou qui nous plaît le plus !Pour voir toutes nos photo des vitrines de Noël 2011 à Lafayette Maison, cliquez sur le bouton ‘play’ ci-dessous, puis sur les quatre petites flèches en bas à droite, afin de passer en mode plein écran.
