""In any creative process, you need to find out what you can play with and how you can play with it. Time plays a part in that. I’m a big believer in evolution rather than revolution.”
Now, Mark Jacobs was commenting on the creative process with respect to the House of Louis Vuitton (in Town&Country – April 2012), but I think the creative evolution of one’s home is very similar. The mark of a well-lived house is the manifestation of life lived. Now, one might call such manifestation clutter (and another might even agree), but it is this clutter that marks the passing of time, the differing experiences, items, words, and tchotchkes that were worth noting. In the yard, it is the daily piddling of watering and weeding and the ability to watch things grow before your eyes! This evolution of a space is what makes my house, my home.
