If you're shopping for someone who doesn't have an affinity for pretty things but could use a few pieces to elevate their space while still proving useful, this is the gift guide for you!
We live with objects every day, and the little things that make up our routines and everyday tasks can make more of an impact than you'd think. Regardless of whether aesthetics matter to someone, well-designed pieces are not just about their look but how they function and streamline mundane tasks, too.
Here is our gift guide for your partner who says they don’t care about design.
