Buy fewer (and better) things. Store like with like. Get rid of the plastic. Display--don't stash--your belongings. Let go of your inner perfectionist and remember that rooms are for living. These are a few of the central principles behind A Remodelista Manual: The Organized and Artful Home, the new book from the team behind the inspirational design site Remodelista.com.
