Much of what is built today is on such a large scale that the human element is almost totally lost. Smaller spaces can not only be cozy, but also beautiful, practical and fun to live in.
How much space do you really need to live well? How much of what you have actually enriches your life and how much of it just ties you down and requires dusting?
I hope this blog to be a travelogue, if you will, of things and ideas that inspire me to reexamine the way I think about living small and living well.

I know, it is just a lamp… But as a designer and an artist, it is the simplest things that get me going. When working, drawing or putting something together, having enough light in the right place is very important. This is a new take by designer Jac Jacobsen on an old classic, the world’s original architect lamp designed in 1937 by Luxo.
