"I’ve ordered a few books about home over the past year, an effort to get lost in the lives of others and also to build out my coffee table’s coffee-table book collection. But none brought me more joy than a slim book that isn’t for the coffee table at all and had no actual photos of spaces, Artists in Residence, written by Melissa Wyse and illustrated by Kate Lewis."
