Enlightenment Rooms
Wallpaper’s current issue (W*109) explores the notion that we each need a space in our homes devoted to personal inspiration of the cultural kind. For this, we recreated our own ideal space: an eclectic composition of books, objects, technology, furniture and art work. Although the point of the space is to reflect and speak to the individual who creates it and should therefore need no explanation, we thought it might be interesting to show the paintings off in full along with the artists who created them.
