That’s what my office looks like all the time.

Beautiful. The last time I experienced that the receivers gave the staff 5 minutes and locked us all out forever – so the chance to document this process is really quite special.
The great thing is it captures an event ‘we’ have all experienced in the way magazines we create capture the events of a period of time.

They are beautiful pictures. And they feel personal, as I had a similar experience when working for Conde Nast’s Mademoiselle, which they closed back in 2001. Same desks, same booths, just a different floor…
