“My desk is a quarter sawn oak drafting table from the 1920’s. My friend Ekene Okobi took this right after I got it. I was so happy. I fell in love with it at Architectural Salvage and went on Facebook asking people to be my table fairygodpeople. I was half kidding but people came out of the woodwork and made it mine. It fits my height like it was built to my measurements. I try and clear it off at the end of my day because it is so beautiful to arrive at uncluttered.”

Kate loves the following: What appears to be a vintage red + white dress and the obvious, Peregrine’s social, sexual and whimsical work AND also the Mary Kate & Ashley series, especially that of the Mardi Gras cups circa 2007 and just the mere fact Peregrine hangs her boots in Kansas City, Missouri. Props, sister.
Peregrine — I love the yellow walls, too. What color is that?
