What’s your all time favorite thing\/item (that you own)?<\/strong> I love my Titanic Lamp<\/a> by Charles Trevelyan.<\/p>\n

What’s the last thing you bought over $100?<\/strong> Joey Roth’s Speakers<\/a>. They sound great and they look amazing. They’re a great deal sturdier than I thought they would be.<\/p>\n

What do you want for Christmas this year<\/strong>? The low pad chair<\/a> from Jasper Morrison. I bought one on ebay and the quote for shipping was more than the cost of the chair so I had to cancel my order.<\/p>\n

As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?<\/strong> I wanted to be an architect. I was (and still am) fascinated by spaces and how to best use them. <\/p>\n

What formed your aesthetic into what it is now? <\/strong> When I was five, my parents divorced and had a very agreeable joint custody arrangement which allowed me to live with both of them for a full week at each house, and consequently I had two bedrooms for most of my youth. Every week I packed my favorite things and moved to my ‘other room’. I believe this translated into my minimalist tendencies and desire to own few possessions. I love the look of sparse, well designed homes that utilize spaces in interesting and innovative ways.<\/p>\n
