home is where the heart is by ilse crawford

a favourite book of ours is home is where the heart is by ilse crawford - a beautiful book that explores the philosophy of putting the human element back into our homes, rather than just focusing on the aesthetics. In a series of essays (survival, protection, love, respect, self & details) Ilse looks at how we can improve our lives, our homes and our day to day activities.

we thought we would share a couple of paragraphs from the book with you that instantly rung true to us - about how we feel about consumerism and why we design the way we do and use the materials that we do.
