My Flat, As Built

A sketch of my flat, for which I designed and managed the fit out two years ago, and have been living in ever since. This was drawn shortly after the works were completed and prior to moving in, capturing the moment where I imagined how I would start to live in my new home.

This is the story of one person and one studio apartment (drawn with one pen). In my day to day work at a large practice, I draw hundreds of flats for thousands of imaginary people, filled with generic furniture for abstract families. As a reminder that these homes will someday be filled and lived in by actual people, I decided to document the space occupied by one person, myself, mess and all.
