Abelardo Morell uses the idea of pin hole camera and make his living room into the photograph. And eventually, he travelled into different destination to look for great interior to finish up his series of the Camera Obscura.

It's like making the wallpaper with the scenery, he created photographs of the city view right into a dark room and expose the photo for 10 hours for the great effect that he's looking for.
Taking everything outside into a dark room, most likely what Abelardo Morell did. What I found interesting is the composition and the situation of the room itself that combine the reflection of the city scape. By capturing so much stuff in a small area, the feeling of fullness in his photos are telling a kind satisfaction by creating a sense of busy yet harmony.
Before he started to use the colour film, the black and white in the photos doesn't make it looks flat but making the photos very 3 dimensional. What's more interesting in the colour photos is the great reflection of the view of nature aligning with the city with the composition of having everything at once.
It's interesting to see two images merge together although they are totally different story, and i think Abelardo Morell had created a great series of photos.
