...farm living is the life for me?? If the above isn't the perfect embodiment of an oxymoron, nothing is. Or perhaps Lagerfeld is as enamored of Li Edelkoort as I am. When you consider her projects in recent years---"A World of Folk" which suggests a tendency towards a more "unplugged" way of life, highlighting that "many of us want a more "acoustic" lifestyle and believe in a better future with organic food, rainwater, solar energy, biofuel, manually made tools, folk music and modern rural design."; and the Designhuis (an Edelkoort initiative) exhibit "Farm" by Studio Job, which beautifully elevates the iconography of rural living--- it's not as shocking to think of Chanel going off in this direction (albeit in a tongue-in-cheek way). I guess we know who's been reading The General Trend Book....
This video gives a fascinating glimpse into her perfectly curated life. Where do I sign up?
Too late... Chellis Wilson IS a declaration of the ability to design a perfectly curated life. However you've done it flawlessly and effortless.
