embracing whitespace
my gravitation toward minimalist spaces was born initially out of necessity. my last four homes have been 708, 935, 753 and 619 square feet, respectively. in spaces this small, every square foot had to be intentionally, meticulously planned. and the less whitespace there was in the home, the more the four walls of any room would close in on me, leaving me feeling disorganized at best and claustrophobic at worst.
