How to Embrace Wabi-Sab
Learn all about this Japanese trend of happily accepting life's imperfections, and get some ideas on how to incorporate the wabi-sabi trend in your own home.

It's an ancient Japanese framework rooted in Zen Buddhism that celebrates the imperfect beauty of nature, with all of its natural flaws and blemishes. When embracing the wabi-sabi approach in your home, you can finally ditch your endless pursuit of the perfect vignette or sexiest shelfie. Wabi-sabi design means saying yes to imperfection, natural objects, texture and unique materials.
A Striking Transformation in Silver Lake

About this time each year, I start to wonder whether my resolution is actually achievable and I search for encouragement to keep me on the right track.
This full home renovation by Stefani Stein for a Silver Lake, California family gives me hope that large transformation is not only possible, but also worth the hard work entailed in achieving it. I promise that these beautiful images will give you the inspiration you need to carry on with your own resolutions.
