I've always been drawn to the little things.
The way afternoon light falls across an old building. The texture of a weathered surface. An object with a history I'll never fully know. A detail that might otherwise go unnoticed.
Sometimes I capture these moments through photography. Other times, I bring something home simply because it speaks to me.
Collected by Design Essentials PNW grew from this curiosity—a love of beautiful details, thoughtful objects, and the stories we attach to the things around us.
Field Notes is a place to share those observations. Photographs, discoveries, interesting places, and occasional glimpses inside the shop.
There isn't a schedule or a particular formula. Just a collection of things that catch my eye and feel worth sharing.
After all, sometimes the most interesting things are the ones we almost overlook.
Collected. The art of noticing.
