A fictional apartment on the piano nobile of a 1930s Italian-era building in central Tirana. Shown first as it would be found: torn wallpaper, worn parquet, a boarded-up fireplace. Then after a high-end restoration with the same arches, cornices and windows, and a new life inside them.

BeforeAfterEvery room transforms in a single continuous shot while the architecture stays still, cut to a string quartet. Also delivered as a 9:16 Reel and a 15-second short.
Drag across each image. Camera, windows, arches and cornices are matched between the two states; only the finishes, furniture and light change.

BeforeAfterOne palette across the whole apartment: the luxury comes from materials and light, not from the number of things in the room.
Drawn to scale first: 14.0 × 9.0 m, with the salon and dining room in an enfilade along the boulevard and the private rooms on the courtyard side. Every shot was checked against this plan.
