Tōkyō desu is a beautiful album composed by photos and GIFs made by Natalia Geometrieva and Damjan Cvetkov-Dimitrov. They documented their recent stay in one of Tokyo’s famed capsule hotels, their photos juxtapose the vastness of the metropolis with the intimacy of their capsule hotel room, conveying the tension between symmetry and chaos.

“It just looks damn chaotic from here. Like someone spilled an entire bag of buildings all over. Although when you zoom in, when you walk to all the specific buildings, you see it’s perfectly maintained and smells like a big city with a hint of fresh electronics.”
