In early 2004, photographer Hu Yang began documenting the lives of ordinary Shanghai residents. He originally planned to include 100 households in his survey, but over the course of the year 500 families allowed him to interview and photograph them in their homes.

From poor migrant workers to expats to billionaires, nearly all of Shanghai is represented.
