My Favorite Object

...the humble shelf. They enable one's things to defy gravity. They open up space. If I am ever stranded on a desert island, with just one possession, I hope that thing is a shelf.

I live in quite a small house, a deliberate decision to avoid the American bigger-is-better syndrome where you muller your finances and happiness by going for larger and larger spaces. Since there is no TV, or as I sometimes call it moronoscope, the living room already has some space. But I just put some new shelves in and oh man.
