WE WERE CAPTIVATED by this mini house tour on Instagram, showcasing a beautiful ranch in Austin, Texas, designed by the interior firm Light and Dwell. Nestled on a sprawling property with its own lake, peach tree orchard, barns, whiskey room, guest quarters, and a private mile-long entrance, this home is a true oasis.
The ways we socialize and date, commute and work are nearly unrecognizable from what they were three years ago. We’ve enjoyed a global pandemic, open employer-employee warfare, a multifront culture war, and social upheavals both great and small. The old conventions are out (we don’t whisper the word cancer or let women off the elevator first anymore, for starters).
