Whether Bauhaus aesthetic, retro-chic, family flat or one-room flat, different personal interiors styles and ways of living are represented in ‘Every Home’, a fictional apartment building, where Gen Z and Boomers, gamers and Yogis can be found in their homes engaged in activities made possible by O2’s high-speed internet.
