​"Every city has a secret archive. In Barcelona, it’s hidden in plain sight inside the backrooms of its most iconic graffiti shops."

​Most people see the murals on the walls of Poblenou or the tags in Raval, but few get to see the "Black Books." These legendary sketchbooks are the private vaults of the streets—where urban legends and neighborhood kids alike leave their soul in ink before it ever touches a brick wall.

​In this project, we decided to go back to the roots. We’re tracking down the most influential Black Books in Barcelona to uncover the evolution of the scene. It’s a journey from the raw, unfiltered curiosity of kids starting out, to the elite, complex sketches that are now bridging the gap into the world of luxury art.

​The future of luxury isn’t found in a gallery—it’s being written in a notebook in a small shop in El Born. ​Check out the full cinematic journey here:
