Nice Rooms with Beautiful Views is a visual research into the presence of Airbnb rentals in Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank.

Through images, texts, and geolocation data from hundreds of Airbnb listings, the project illustrates the role of short-term holiday homes in aestheticizing and normalizing life in settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territory. Revealing a troubling logic: the more people feel at home in a colony, the less it is perceived as such.

Across the book, landscapes, domestic interiors, and descriptive language construct a coherent visual regime that renders the settlements as peaceful and desirable environments. The settlement stages itself as a non-violent safe place while the suppressed conditions of its existence - racial segregation, land expropriation, militarized exclusion - are out of view.

The result is a surreal landscape. Where the visible is invisible, where the livability of some places depends on the erasure of others.
