Affluence Debate: Furnishings Over Status Homes
James Hewlett, president of the National Society of Interior Designers, urges that affluent households prioritize livable furnishings over luxury shells. He cites examples of $75,000 homes with empty living rooms and argues that well furnished homes in modest neighborhoods enhance stature more than unfurnished mansions. He also notes money as a barrier to prompt furnishing and warns against overvaluing permanence when decor should reflect changing lives. A second item announces East Texas Vacation Guide sixth edition release for national distribution.
