I just checked the rents in my area and I could rent a large commercial space for only $1k when absolutely tiny studios here are $1.5k minimum. I checked the building has 24hr access and I will be asking if it has a water hookup. Is it too risky?

Could maybe have things packaged up like they were sent in the mail and carry them in? That doesn't help for a lot of existing furniture, but it could get clothes, toiletries, bedding, a mattress, and some storage through? And chests of drawers might not necessarily look weird getting moved into an office.
Idk, I think it could work?
Biggest risk is like fire inspector, city inspector or someone coming in and seeing residential use in a commercial building and an eviction following suit.
Might get away with an "artist studio" like user above aaidwith a work space in one corner and maybe a futon, basics in one corner and minimum appliances (mini fridge, microwave, kettle) it can't look permanent, which is hard.
I think if it had break room vibes and were kept spotlessly clean all the time, that could build some plausible deniability maybe? Super ultra tidy doesn't look lived in.
