What's behind that door?

"Doors speak a story and convey a feeling, a presence. They are the Eyes to the Soul of those who lived behind them, representing the history and experiences they have witnessed. Some doors are proud; others are tired or worn, but tenacious. Some are welcoming and beckon entry and exploration, whilst others tease and tempt with mystery, encouraging the visitor to take the journey through. "

These are the words of Amy Karam, a local San Francisco artist. Amy has traveled to over 30 countries and has been passionate about capturing her experience through photos. In particular, she has consistently been drawn to taking photographs of Doors for the last 12 years. Her art is very expressive and adds a lot of open space to any room.


Her "Doors" collection includes shots from Tunisia, Morocco, China and many more countries.


Amy's work is on display at Chez Moi in San Francisco. Come and open one of these doors!

  2. Thank you for the post. It's totally awesome to see what custom doors look like in a picture. I've been looking at getting new doors on the front side of my house, but it is honestly so hard to decide what to go with. This blog definitely helps though! Thanks again!
