Russian-born, UK-based artist Yulia Brodskaya's work is, in my opinion, the most fantastic and captivating featured in the book. Formerly an illustrator of the hand-drawn variety, Brodskaya took up quilling, a craft in which thin strips of paper are twirled around a tool to create spiraled shaped that are then glued to paper to great images. Her clients now include publications such New Scientist, the New York Times Magazine, and the Guardian as well as companies such as Hermes, Starbucks, and Target. Here, the steps in creating a illustration for Cadbury.

While Helgerson points out that you could find an adorable vintage sofa and reupholster it for under $2,000, for a serious statement piece splurge on a vintage piece. For this project, Baker worked with a vintage Knoll sectional from Coup d'Etat. “We reupholstered it in a Holland & Sherry fabric and added the piping detail, pairing it with a Madeline Weinrib rug, and two Marco Zanus Lady Chairs reupholstered in a reversed Hermes fabric,” says Baker. Beyond vintage, at this price point you can essentially design your own sofa, say Baker. “You can have complete customization, change the seat depth seat height, fabric choice, also the fill - you have the flexibility to coordinate your interior with the rest of your space and also elevate the sofa, adding more detail to make it more unique.”
