The Mudroom

Not curated. Not minimal. Certainly not quiet.

This is where hats pile onto busts, baskets overflow, paintings lean instead of hang, and garden clippings arrive beside muddy shoes and half-finished ideas.

I tell myself I am styling it, but really I am living in it. A little too much here, something moved there, a chair that collects books instead of people. It changes by instinct more than intention. Perhaps that’s why I love it. Nothing feels permanent. Nothing too resolved.

It is the room of arrivals and departures. The place where gardening, wandering, entertaining, and making all seem to collide at once.

A collective mess, yes—
but one that feels entirely like home
