In an age of mass production and disposal, where image filters and AI are augmenting reality and concealing flaws in our physical appearance, there’s something refreshing about embracing imperfection. Learning to accept and celebrate imperfections is not only a powerful life lesson, but a healthier, more sustainable approach to our way of living and consuming, too.
We can extend this philosophy by celebrating the signs of wear and tear in our homes and making a feature of it. A well-loved and lived in space is not a presentation of perfection, after all, but more a realistic image complete with frayed edges and chipped corners and all the hallmarks of a happy home with stories to tell.
