CAAN TAKES US INSIDE HER EVER-EVOLVING FAMILY HOME
words by liz caan · photography by eric roth This is our family home in Chestnut Hill. It’s more of an evolution than a re-decoration. My home is my laboratory, the place where I can be me, and play with the things I collect, and experiment with new treasures. I don’t have to answer to anyone except my wallet, and rarely have to compromise, thanks to a very accommodating family that embraces my ideas and puts up with my hammering and moving furniture around. I believe we should practice what we preach and that it’s important for a home to have a distinct personality that isn’t always so perfect. If it feels right, it probably is right and if it doesn’t feel right anymore, it should change.
