"For me, this kind of clutter is comfort – a sort of metaphorical hug. Think about the inevitable back-to-school feeling that hits as we enter September when many of us start getting our desks in order – if you’re anything like me, it is a case of digging out a notebook you might have bought while on holiday, filling a jug – perhaps an auction find – with flowers, and lighting a nice candle. Not only do I feel reassured by the presence of these things, but I am also transported to different chapters of life and to the holidays that they might have been picked up on."
