Foxes, Folk Art, and the Feel of Home

Subscribe to Room to ThinkIn this first episode of Room to Think, Lyssia sits down with artist and designer Adam Trest, whose work lives at the intersection of storytelling, pattern, and emotion. From growing up in the South surrounded by handcrafted objects to studying architecture and fine art, Adam shares how his environment shaped not just his style—but the way he thinks about the role of art inside a home. The conversation explores how memory, childhood, and lived experience quietly show up in the spaces we create—from foxes that symbolize a “good day” to collections that unknowingly become reflections of family and past. By the end of this episode, you’ll start to think differently about the pieces you bring into your home—and why the most meaningful spaces are the ones that feel collected, not designed. Loved this episode?
