Great builds are to come…

Great people are inside…

Great ideas come from within.

@elzpl is one of the most brilliant and naturally talented interior designers I’ve met of space and all things interior and exterior.

[Ella Plank @elzpl]

A cafe is not a feature.

It's its own product - people first have to decide to spend time in your space before any network effect happens.

When I designed @akatoshouse, every piece of decor had a purpose. Every flow of movement was considered.
Now it's called the most beautiful hacker house and our results still speak for themselves.

Good design is never just the one big thing but the accumulation of care, intention, and knowing exactly what feelings you want someone to walk away with.

@nico_laqua your beta test was successful. Now let's take corgi cafe to its full potential with the right "interior design".

If you’re ass at something, then you’d better just start trying first.

That’s all we ever have.

Guys, if it’s nighttime for you and you’re awake, peep at the moon.

Absolutely brilliant in the sky, paling not to a street light.

Also visibly appearing in the northern hemisphere, alongside northern tropical regions of southern hemisphere, is the Big Dipper!
