Stay Home Project

CONCEPT  /  DESIGN  /  PRODUCTION

Stay Home is a collection of photographs taken by the public during the Covid-19 lockdown in 2020. I invited submissions from across the country — asking contributors to share just one picture that relates to their lockdown experience, plus a few words describing what the image means to them.

The resulting book is a visual journey through the many different ways in which this strange period of history has affected us, and a collective memory of how it felt to live through it.

Ensuring high production quality and low environmental impact, Stay Home was printed and bound in Norfolk, using beautiful sustainably-sourced papers supplied by G.F Smith.
