Showing me the door



My friend ‘Y’, whose apartment featured in a Shiftazine article ‘Compartment Apartment’ last year, 
has added some more magic to his wonderful inner city abode by covering his front door in Japanese comic book pages.
And on top of the wonderful texture and pattern these comic pages provide, he has placed the largest peep hole I have ever seen in the middle of the door. 
It works as both a security device but if there is nothing on TV, one can spend the night comfortably watching the comings and going of his neighbors.
So unexpected. So entertaining. So inventive. So Shiftazine. Clever ‘Y’.
