PhotographerBarbara Karant
820 Ebony/Jet documents the former headquarters of the Johnson Publishing Company the storied African American media corporation. Completed in 1972, the building featured a vibrant and highly distinctive interior that remained largely preserved in a time-capsule state long after the company departed. Following the building's sale to developers in 2017 and its conversion into residential units, these remarkable interiors disappeared. My photographs serve as critical documentation of this important chapter in American cultural history. Architect: J. Moutoussamy Interiors: A. Elrod and W. Raiser
