Get to know Xavier Donnelly, our esteemed collaborator

We sit down with New York City’s own Xavier Donnelly — the creative director and designer behind some of today’s most iconic luxury destinations — for an illuminating conversation about how lighting can transform a space. “Overhead lighting [can] be tricky if it's too bright,” he confesses to our founder, Lori. “That being said, I think overhead lighting is really helpful and in illumination, and you just want it to be very soft and diffused.” Read on for more from that conversation.

Making the mood right with mood lights

Winter is here — the days are shorter, the sun is a tad more shy, and the tenants of apartment buildings are, well, more in danger of Seasonal Affective Disorder. Having a cozy oasis in times like these could not be more crucial; in fact, without a fluffy nest to curl up inside for these times of hibernation, bad vibes become perilously possible for renters.
