Graphic designer InĂŞs Maldonado has collected ephemera since childhood: boxes of envelopes, random postcards, pseudo-pinups, family photographs, varied bits and bygone bobs. Those forgotten yet meaningful bits of paper eventually inspired Papelaria Moderna, which stocks cards, notebooks, and objects made by small workshops preserving traditional techniques like letterpress, hand bookbinding, and engraving.
Her home works the same way. Photos and notes are tucked into the corners of frames. Objects layer over other objects: plates beside books, crystals over CDs, woven baskets over paperbacks. A transparent box holds beach stones, shells, half a tarot deck, and a fortune cookie slip that reads “You are destined for the finer things in life.”
This Catching Up With focuses on those objects — the things Inês has chosen to keep, display, and live with.
A mobile metal cart for serving or storing drinks, magazines, or everyday items. The Basso Trolley is made of steel with a waterproof cork mat. A host piece made for movement, order, and ease.
