Rooms & Furniture
This section has two kinds of article. The first is the room study: a close look at a style, from Mediterranean and Scandinavian to Japandi, mid-century modern and modern farmhouse, with its colors, materials and the details that keep it from turning into a caricature. The second is the furniture guide: how to choose a sofa for a small living room, a dining table that seats six, a rug that suits your layout, or bedside lamps at a height you can actually read by.
The furniture guides lean on numbers. Clearances, seat heights, rug overhangs and table widths are given in centimeters and inches, with proportion lists and simple diagrams you can check against your own floor plan. A room that feels right is usually a room where those numbers were respected, even if nobody measured on purpose.
We also look at how rooms photograph, since many of us now judge a space through a screen before we see it in person. Each article cites the manufacturers, design publications and museum collections we consulted, and none of it requires buying everything new.
