Anorak core is the aesthetic of unashamed niche enthusiasm — the visual language of cardigans, overstuffed bookshelves, handwritten index cards, well-worn technical manuals, and cups of tea going cold because you got distracted reading about locomotive classifications. It's not performative nerdiness or geek chic trying to be cool; it's the genuine article, with all the specific, slightly chaotic warmth that implies. Anorak core spaces feel lived-in by someone who cares deeply about something that most people don't know exists. It's cosy, cerebral, and entirely comfortable with itself — which is, ironically, making it very appealing online.
His flat is peak anorak core — maps on the walls, three different train almanacs, and a scanner in the corner.
