Franco Pfaller’s other photographic love is the mountains of Switzerland and in 2016 published a book of photographs on the Valais region of Switzerland with Swiss publisher Kummerly+Frei called Mein Wallis-Mon Valais-My Valais. Franco Pfaller’s photographs can be seen on his website www.yourpanorama and he also produces posters, postcards, calendars, etc for clients.

'In his new book Art Deco London, Swiss photographer Franco Pfaller captures many of London's best-loved art deco confections: Battersea Power Station, Walthamstow Stadium, the Savoy. But a number of lesser-known buildings get a look-in too: garages, laundries and fire stations. Here, we salute such underdogs, which are nonetheless deco gems.'
