Photographer Sam Golanski in 2016 decided to take a closer look into the topic of a doorman while living in NYC.

His project was a very first attempts to zoom in and portrait the ordinary men who in their Art Deco uniforms are representing prestige and glam of live inside of these fascinating apartments. In this series he spent few weeks trying to portrait very men with his medium square format camera. This series initially ment to focus on the residents who he planned to photograph casually on the streets. As he befriended few local doormen and with their mouth zipped to talk about the residents he decided to photographed the doormen instead as no celebrity ever appeared at the front of his camera.
