Promenade means “to take a walk” — slowly and calmly — through a beautiful, inspiring, and artistic place.
Rita created the Instagram account with the understanding that good visual references are essential to starting any creative process. What began spontaneously soon evolved into a curated archive of images that naturally attracted architects, designers, and art lovers alike.
Today, Promenade is more than just a source of architectural inspiration — it’s a digital platform with an editorial eye, offering visibility to the work of artists from diverse creative spheres.
With a strong sense of aesthetics and a passion for storytelling, Promenade invites its audience to slow down, observe, and be inspired by the details that shape the world around us.
