    Designer of the Day: Sean Anderson

    Before designing interiors across North America, Sean Anderson was wandering his family's 60-acre property in rural Mississippi, drawn to rusted metal, sun-bleached wood, and layers of peeling paint. That early fascination with texture and time became the foundation of a design philosophy he'd go on to build an entire career around, one that finds beauty in the worn and the collected. Anderson founded his Memphis-based firm in 2013, and in the years since has developed a signature style that feels both modern and lived-in, featuring a clean architectural base layered with antiques and a touch of personal history. That building block is at the center of his debut monograph, Interior Narratives. Taking the readers through nine full interiors, mostly Southern, each property is built on the tension Anderson returns to again and again: past against present, and always with a modern point of view.
