Living in New York City is an experience that transcends the ordinary. The rhythm of life is a cacophony of ambition, culture, and relentless energy. It's a place where dreams are chased and where the cityscape itself feels like a living organism, constantly evolving and pulsating with the lives of millions. For this issue of STUDY our 7th, we asked photographer Adrian Gaut and creative partner Akari Endo-Gaut to document the spaces of various New Yorkers. Adrian Gaut is an American photographer based in New York, his architectural photographs, and travel reports are regularly published by international publications such as Condé Nast Traveler, New York Times, Vogue or Architectural Digest. For this long portfolio of over 100 pages he photographed the spaces as they were, no styling, no artificial lighting. Homes as they are, beautifully put together by their owners. Living in New York City is about embracing its contradictions: the luxury and the grit, the solitude and the community, the chaos and the serenity. It's a city that rewards those who are ready to take on whatever comes their way. For those who call it home, New York City is more than a place—it's an experience, a state of mind, and an endless adventure. The issue also contains three essays written by Alexa Chung, Violette D’Urso and Zoe Ruffner about their own relationship to the city and what it means to them to live in New York. Living in New York City is a testament to resilience and adaptability. The city demands much but offers much in return. Each neighborhood, each block, each building tells a unique story of its residents, their struggles, and their triumphs.
