Home For Now

Home For Now explores how to live meaningfully in spaces that are not entirely your own. In a world shaped by mobility, high rents, and fading permanence, it shows how a new generation creates home within borrowed walls and between cities. Case studies reveal how limits inspire ingenuity: spaces that feel personal, layered, and alive with ritual.

Blending essays, photography, and ideas for everyday life, the book is a portrait of adaptability and the art of making space—wherever you are, and however long you stay.
