There are two kinds of people in this world: those who order the fries for the table, and those who steal them off someone else’s plate.

I have a 4-year-old, which means even though I love a good sandwich, I rarely get to eat one without a little negotiation.

Maximalism isn’t about more clutter—it’s about more character. And in a small space, the best place to start? Right on the wall. Wall sconces are the secret weapon designers reach for again and again: they save space, layer in light, and (in some cases) double as sculptural art. … | Continue reading
