Would you like to come up to my secret studio to see my etchings?

... if it was ever secret, it's not going to be long after that picture. Wouldn't be hard to pick out which overpass by the graffiti.

Its an interesting idea, and the video was good at answering questions I had about the practicalities after seeing the stills. It has plenty of room to expand out into the next arch if he decides on a family. The noise would rule it our for me but I was particularly left wondering what the air quality is like.

Yeah, air quality would be my big sticking point, but I love that little space he's made for himself.

Only way to keep a secret is to never share it, this studios location is probably blown. Still I am glad this exists, I want a sekret studio now, even if it is just a boring office I don't let anyone visit me in.

I do love photos of perfectly organized/stacked spaces, and this totally scratches that itch. Like looking at Dwell magazine.

Sitting here in my open office plan, that kind of intimate, private space looks so peaceful. A minimalist space with the time to create... what a dream.

Fascinating and cool, but I would imagine if there's much traffic at all, the space will get really filthy really fast.

Dear God, why is he welding in SHORTS!?

Well, he's already playing in traffic ...

"The law, in its majestic equality, forbids rich and poor alike from constructing in their welding shops elaborate devices for suspending their sleeping shacks under bridges."

How does he pee? Or, more to the point, when?

i'm sure he's got a piss-jug up there when there's no photographer around. If he just let it go over the side, he'd have to clean the area before asking any ladies over.
