Living Vignette
A hand rests on the brass table, leaving a subtle mark. Sunlight illuminates a scuff on the leather cushion.
Material Palette
Limewash paint: It feels soft and matte. It shows subtle variations and deepens over time.
Unlacquered brass: It feels cool and solid. It develops a rich, darkening patina from touch and air.
Full-grain saddle leather: It feels firm and smooth at first. It will soften, scuff, and gain a unique sheen from use.
