I think this is a weak software company analogy, though I like the initial discussion on creating beauty for your own particular salary level. That said, I think artful individuality is a trait that very few have; building a space without resorting to cheap imitation is no easy task.
In related news, it’s like the internets are in congruence this morning. Check out these modular rooms. Imitation at its simplest.
Thanks for the link. Have you ever seen the book “Sham Pearls for Real Swine”? It talks about how you can make or buy good art on the cheap, and how you can fill your house with expensive junk.
I have not, though it sounds exactly like the type of book I’d enjoy reading. Thank you very much for the suggestion, I’ll add it to my list!
