Room of the Month
Sometimes, less is more. There’s beauty in paring back, which is the exact ethos this stunningly spare space follows. Thanks to a carefully curated selection of furnishings—a sleek sofa, the natural wood coffee table, the unique hanging pendant, our Ahava Jute-Blend Tasseled Rug—the blank walls and pulled-back design of the space feel like a feature and not overlooked in the scheme.
Follow of the Month
ICYMI: We collaborated with interior designer and author Lauren Liess on a collection of the most beautiful rugs—and that’s partly because Lauren is one of our favorite follows ever! Her signature style is absolutely gorgeous, with tons of inspiration from vintage design and nature, and we know you’ll love following along as much as we do.
