As Siegel's camera visits architecture studios around the city from downtown Manhattan and Fifth Avenue to Brooklyn, similarities both functional and stylistic appear in the form of loft-like spaces, communal work tables, and other omnipresent tools of the trade.

The film was comissioned by Storefront for Art and Architecture and originally debuted at the OfficeUS, the United States Pavilion at the 2014 Venice Biennale of Architecture.
