since i was very young i’ve always taken a lot of pride in how i customize my space. i value being surrounded by the things i love, free of judgment. this setup isn’t perfect and is always changing. i asked my dear friend Matt to help me document this space as it was before i was to leave for out-of-state work for months.

While this room is far from my dream setup, it still makes me very happy to be in it and very fortunate to be able to collect as much as I do.

growing up i spent a lot of time on youtube looking at retro game collection videos. a lot of my inspo comes from the AVGN “nerd room”. i always loved how James Rolfe had his stuff put together. 4chan anime-rot rooms were big on me. i also channeled Happy99 couple: Dom & Nat’s apartment. they seem to have the same taste as me to a tee. i love the absolute assault of nostalgia they have channeled in their home and store, and want to recreate that feeling. i was actually lucky enough to meet Dom at their storefront, and of course glazed tf outta his taste and setup.

when doing this shoot, we decided it was best not to tidy up too much. we wanted to make it feel less staged, and more realistic to what the room typically looks like.

most of my time my room is spent working on my websites, playing retro games on my CRT, yapping on the phone, or rotting on fightcade playing third strike. i will say, my ADHD brain tends to get distracted and stare at the wall because of the loud crap iv’e thrown on it.

thats all for now, thx!

these were all taken in october of 2024. this room is already very different as of writing. (2/11/25) so expect this to be updated every so often.
