“We love to host dinner parties and celebrations at our apartment. Having this camera out for friends to take pictures is a really fun way to capture and share our memories. The instant gratification of taking the picture and having a physical copy right away is such a treat in a world where your best photos otherwise live on your phone.” — Emilie Johnson Pires, vice-president of SutherlandGold Group, and Struan Pires, CEO of Carrington Fox, Williamsburg, Brooklyn
Shapes Area Rug
Like a Mondrian painting for your floor.
$75 at Domino
“My fiancé and I will be moving into a Manhattan-sized studio, and there are few truly chic ways to divide a studio apartment.

Mud Australia Flared Dinner Plate

$95 at Of a Kind
