Episode 1: Foxes, Folk Art, and the Feel of Home 🎙️

In our first episode of Room to Think, I sat down with artist and designer Adam Trest to explore what makes a home feel like home rather than just look like one. We talked about pattern, color, story, ritual, and the pieces we collect that hold meaning long after we’ve chosen them.

Adam’s work is a reminder that the objects we live with are not just decoration. Whether it’s a recurring motif like foxes, folk art, or a collection built slowly over time, these elements act as anchors for memory, identity, and belonging. They are often the quiet reason a space feels personal rather than staged.

Discussion prompt:

Which of the following resonates most with you in your own space?

• An object you’ve kept because of what it means to you

• A color, pattern, or artwork that makes you feel at home

• A memory that lives in your space long after it happened

Even a sentence is enough. There are no right answers here.
