Flavorwire

We don’t tend to think of supermarkets and drug stores as gorgeous settings — in fact, they’re so much a part of daily drudgery that we rarely consider their aesthetic merits at all. But in his series Choices, San Francisco-based photographer Richard Stultz captures what he calls the “perverse beauty” of the patterns and color combinations in the everyday retail displays that reflect America’s vast variety of consumer products. Click through to see a selection of images from Choices, which we discovered via Faith is Torment, and visit Stultz’s website to find about more about his work.
