Compartment Apartment



My friend lives in a disused 1930s office block in Sydney’s CBD. 
It is full of people who use the empty office spaces as photo studios, creative spaces, and living areas. 
It is somewhat of a warren with bridges and overpasses that lead up and down stairways,
around corners and down narrow corridors all of which are completely covered with graffiti.

He has made a disused office space into a compartment apartment with each small area,
within the empty room, have different but complimentary functions.  
He has put it all together on a shoestring budget.  
With lots of street shopping, otherwise known as stuff that has been dumped, 
he has created an apartment that is a welcoming, enjoyable, intimate home.

Clever him.
