When I see a wall that's hung with different objects, framed or unframed, what I like about it is its fluidity and rule-breaking nature. Just experiment a bit.

I'm interested in fashion; I buy fairly good pieces, and I think as I've gotten older, I've pared down a lot.

Everywhere in my house are these little things that have meanings and make me think of great memories.

Home has always been one of the most important things. If I don't feel at home in my space, then I feel really unmoored.

You can find a lot of reasonable buys at Wal-Mart. But one key to making it on a budget is by donating your time and labor to the project. Do-it-yourself projects will always help you save.

I live in a beautiful vintage building that was built in the heart of downtown Chicago.

I can look at a photo and the dimensions of any piece and tell you if it's going to sit well with the four other pieces in your room.
