Friday Findings: Oscar Wilde the Great

Pure Vanilla. Pure and Vanilla. What exactly does that mean? And how do they relate to design whether it's food, fashion, or home interior? Well, the pure aspect of life stands for refined taste, humbling attitudes and grounded ideas. But all simplistic beginnings need bold taste, fun flavor and exciting possibilities.
