Intimate and personal, haptic and intellectual, the stories and images collected in this issue form a kind of imagitorium, not unlike the thoughtfully curated endeavors of the gallerists presented on these pages: Rosa Park, owner of the Francis Gallery, introduces her most familiar and personal pieces; Trevor Cheney takes us to the universe recreated at The Seventh House in Los Angeles; we also visit the London house where Kate and Ben Lawrence host The Cold Press, and deepen our discovery of Milan through Henry Timi’s homage to Italian heritage.

Openhouse is a biannual magazine that talks about art, design, architecture and culture.
