From empty
to designed.

An empty room, furnished by hand

The same room photographed twice: once bare, with the floor and the light and nothing else, and once finished. Sweep the swatch across it and the designed interior fills in behind the stroke — furniture, textiles, the warmth of the lamps — in whatever order the visitor chooses to work. The bare room stays visible everywhere the hand has not been, so both states are on screen at once.

It behaves the same under a finger as under a mouse, and a visitor who has asked for reduced motion gets the two rooms as a comparison they drag themselves.

Who it is for

Interior design studios, home staging companies, furniture and lighting brands, renovation firms, and anyone selling a service whose value is the distance between a room as found and a room as finished.

What it replaces

The project page where the empty shot sits above the finished shot and the visitor scrolls between them. Separated by a scroll, the two photographs are two rooms. In one frame, with the change happening under the visitor’s hand, they are the same room — and the work done to it is the thing being shown rather than described.

It is built as a single section and drops into the site that already exists, without touching the portfolio behind it.
