We Walk Past Them Everyday,

without giving them a second glance,

 but to at least one person,

 walls and what hangs on them are things of beauty,

 roughly 8 years ago a Japanese designer who goes by the name “The Wall” (ザ壁) began posting pictures of walls with the hashtag #ザ壁部 (The Wall Club), and with a community of users larger than most countries, the designer quickly found a following: like-minded photographers who equally took pleasure in walls,

 there are plain walls, dirty walls, old walls, walls with piping, walls with windows and walls with no windows, in fact, flipping through all these walls, it’s not difficult to begin to see the aesthetic qualities of walls,

 OK not technically a wall, but there is one in there somewhere!

 the hashtag now has over 85,000 photographs of walls associated with it, and meetups are occasionally organized in which fellow wall-enthusiasts will get together in Tokyo to photograph a wall, 

wall, well I never, all photographs are by ka_nai (“The Wall”).
