– function + form .. or multipurpose decor .. or because sometimes you just run out of space.
i have never been a particularly practical person because practicality doesn’t suit me … because … well why not? i have always had this slightly spontaneous side, making special trips for ice cream late at night, hours after we’ve been ready for bed or wanting to take vacations on the spot just for the fun of it. this can drive camden crazy at times. he who wants steadiness and consistency doesn’t always see eye to eye with spontaneity. however when it comes to dwelling small, pragmatic i sometimes have to to be. in our current home we have had to give a few functional items a decorative purpose because frankly there is just nowhere else for them to go. i find, for us, this works best when keeping it simple … not cluttering walls with an overbearing amount of stuff but here and there, adding small functional things in a decorative way.
