Notes from the Box

More Than an Entry—Doors Define a Space A home isn’t complete without doors. They welcome you in. They create privacy. They define how a space flows and functions. And sometimes, they simply hide what you don’t want on display. But beyond function, doors are one of the most overlooked design elements in a home....

Everything Old Is New Again You’ve probably heard the phrase—and when it comes to interiors, it couldn’t be more true. Design trends come and go, but vintage never really disappears. It evolves, reappears, and gets reinterpreted in new ways. Even the most modern interiors often borrow from the past—whether it’s mid-century lines, Art Deco...

Easy, Elevated Style That Carries You Through the Season There’s something about summer that changes how we live at home. Spaces feel lighter. Colors feel softer. Even the way we gather and relax shifts. And if we could hold onto that feeling just a little longer—into fall and beyond—we would. At Out of the...

Because Everything Worth Keeping Deserves to Be Seen Most of us are collectors in one way or another.

That’s where great lighting comes in. The right lighting doesn’t just help you see—it shapes how a room feels. It...

A Look Inside the Pieces We Can’t Stop Talking About Every so often, we turn to the people who know the store best—our team. They walk the showroom every day, unpack new arrivals, and see firsthand what stands out. So when we ask for their favorite pieces, the answers are always interesting. These aren’t...

Why Decor Is the “Cherry on Top” of Your Home Furniture builds a room—but décor brings it to life. Think of décor as the finishing layer. The personality. The pieces that catch your eye, spark emotion, and make a space feel uniquely yours. At Out of the Box, we like to think of décor...

An Artist’s Perspective on Collecting & Living with Art Art has a way of transforming a space—adding emotion, movement, and meaning that furniture alone simply can’t. At Out of the Box, we’re excited to introduce Sunny Gibbons, a nationally recognized artist and new associate whose work and perspective bring a fresh layer of inspiration...
