Bumpy Wilson and his fiancée, Aubrey, navigate the challenges of downsizing to a smaller apartment in Chicago while maintaining their passion for vintage furniture. They emphasize the importance of creating a welcoming atmosphere in their home, grounded in their upbringing with open-door policies. Bumpy describes their design choices as a mix of his artistic flair and Aubrey's practicality, which together make their living space inviting, comfortable, and reflective of their personalities. Their approach to furnishing prioritizes comfort and a lived-in feel over pristine aesthetics, facilitating a relaxed social environment.
"That is another reason why I opt to buy vintage furniture that has already been used. It is totally okay to spill, to bump a corner, or whatever. The furniture has been around for 40 years, and nothing is pristine."
"There is nothing worse than walking into an apartment and feeling uncomfortable, feeling uneasy, and not at home. Both of us grew up in homes that had an open-door policy so we want people to be able to walk in and feel comfortable."
