HomeSupply - Home Catalog 004: Living Cozy

Home Catalog 004. Hi! You might notice the logo above is a little different this week. I spent this weekend moving HomeSupply over to a new domain, LivingCozy.com. I made the change for a couple of reasons:

1. Both HomeSupply.com and .co.uk are in use, and it just felt a little confusing to build a new brand with that name. And, more importantly;
2. I feel Cozy represents what I hope this community can become a little better...

When I moved house in December, our new place started to feel like home when we'd finally unpacked the last box and had our furniture in place. It wasn't so much the space itself that made the house a home, it was the things in it. As Arkon Street's founder notes on its about page:

"It is the furniture, then, that I place my sense of home in, the objects that I take with me to root me to a sense of place, to—in an instant—make a new city familiar, a new place comfortable."

In the literal sense "home" is a place. But the feeling of home, of comfort, of well...coziness, often comes from the furniture, decor and things surrounding us. And that's what I'd love to discuss more in this newsletter... as well as sharing the latest modern homeware brands, I'd love to explore our relationship with the things we surround ourselves with, and what actually makes a house feel like a home.

Cheers

Ash
