This Is Where We Live: Illustrated Stories of Place and Space

A visual journey into how illustration reimagines space, place, and the ways we inhabit them.

This Is Where We Live gathers over 200 illustrated stories that rethink how space is seen and felt. Today’s most inventive illustrators turn floor plans into fictions, cities into dreams, and rituals into visual systems. Their cutaways, axonometrics, and playful maps reveal how drawing becomes a tool to imagine, question, and narrate the spaces we build and inhabit.

Bridging illustration, architecture, and design culture, the book is both a visual atlas and a manifesto for seeing the world differently.
