For his project Windows, Dave Krugman took photos of hundreds of NYC apartment windows at night and stitched them together into ever-shifting typologies. What’s going on in each of those apartments?

Ooooo.... I love this. Find myself doing this any time I'm on the road at night: peering at windows, trying to imagine/extrapolate what it might be like inside that particular room. And wondering how so many people can cope with cold white LED lighting. Be a boring place if we all liked the same thing tho eh
