Furniture + interiors, to some, are totally central. To others, furnishings + the things we live on and around, are solely for functional use.

But what if we’re allowed to cherish the spaces in which we spend most of our time? Perhaps rethinking the world of our office + home goods isn’t over-the-top, but a lifestyle investment.
