One of the things I enjoy the most about small space living is that it inspires us to seek new experiences beyond our four walls. Recently, Adam and I have been seeking adventure in our own backyard, so to speak. We've been biking with West and the pups all around Venice and its neighboring town of Marina del Rey, and the outings have reminded us that we don't need to go far to encounter new and interesting sights. (And, for the pups, new and interesting sniffs.) Here are some of my favorite images from the past two weeks of pedaling around nearby. All of them were shot on my iPhone.
Welcome to the Cottage.
The Tiny Canal Cottage is a resource for helping folks mindfully conceptualize, decorate and enjoy versatile + smaller home spaces. Founded by designer, consultant, stylist, creative director and author, Whitney Leigh Morris, this family-owned small business recently finished the construction of a new, compact cottage and greenhouse-office in the southeastern US, and are also restoring a little 1800s French farmhouse and its outbuildings with co-stewards. Morris’ focus is crafting flexible, sustainable, and more community-focused home spaces. Explore Whitney’s book, blog, and social channels for years of tips and tales from living and working in — and with — a smaller footprint.
