My priority when it comes to my living space is that people feel at-home here; I grew up in a cozy, welcoming house that people loved to visit, and I really strive to be that place for my friends.“
Instead, I see my apartment as sort of an ode to the everyday - think vintage magazine covers and ads, photos from old scrapbooks, framed journal entries. I love putting things on walls that normally would have rotted away in a drawer - it makes me feel connected to the past.
My best friend once asked me if I'd ever be 'done' with my place (from a design perspective), and as nice as it sounds, I just don't see that happening - I'm constantly going to estate sales and thrift stores and finding new things I adore.
I think that will only be possible if I have a 10-bedroom home one day, and as that seems unlikely, I've begrudgingly accepted maximalism.
