Before you begin designing or buying anything, you need to get real and ask yourself: What do you really want to use this room for? What do you want to do in this room but can't now?

When people ask what I'd like to do next, the answer is usually, 'Something with people in rooms.'

I love having beautiful furniture and things, but I don't want my space to look like a showroom.

I hate going into a room with people in it and the feeling of them staring. I find every moment excruciating.

For me, 'Room' is an opportunity to relive an aspect of my childhood that I hadn't put a ton of thought into.

I don't like rooms you never use or that are wasted space but I also like a sparseness and a cleanness.

I used to love a well-arranged room: the furniture, the fabric, the lighting.

My room for books and study or for sitting and thinking about nothing in particular to see what would happen was at the end of a hall.
