As a self-employed blogger and freelance creative based at home, I find having a calm, clutter-free work environment is vital for staying focused and inspired. I count myself very lucky that we have a small box room that I can use as an office, and over the years it's gradually evolved to suit my needs. I've long been happy with the bones of it . . .
The Edit | A summer dinner party
A couple of weeks ago I shared an Instagram reel showing how I'd styled the table for a summer dinner party with friends. I had lots of people asking where various items came from, but I've had most of them for ages and sadly they're no longer available.

Located in Ibiza's rural interior, this 200-year-old finca has been renovated from top to bottom . . .
Highlights of 3 Days of Design 2023 | The best of the rest
There's no 'new finds' post from me this month, as I'm rounding up some of my remaining highlights from 3 Days of Design instead. I've already shared detailed looks at a few of my favourite venues, but there were plenty of other interesting exhibitions and product launches that caught my eye.

![[AD - press stay] We had a wonderful couple of days at @treehouse.retreats on the Cowdray Estate in the South Downs National Park earlier this week. There's always something special about staying in a beautifully designed woodland hideaway, but particularly so during this autumn-winter cusp when the weather can change from golden sunshine to magical snow flurries and back again. I'll have a full review on the blog soon, but here's a taster...
