The organic encounter of things: Liz's Desk

The organic encounter of things: Liz's Desk

By Monk R

Today we kick off our first video edition of the OMOI Deskie series, featuring an interview with our founder, Liz Sieber. Longtime OMOI fans will enjoy this tour of her cozy and maximalist home office, which is filled with cool and nostalgic items, ephemera from her travels, and well-organized shelves of physical media. We get to hear about her desk setup, favorite items and places to shop, how she picks items for the store, and the importance of physical materials for inspiration in a digital world. It's quite a fun peek into the DNA of OMOI. Enjoy!
