Editor's Note

s I am writing this on a cold November evening, it is pouring down outside and it is clear, that summer has come to an end to give space for much colder weather. While others may see this as a bad thing, I personally cherish the cold and dark months the most. Beautiful weather in forms of snow and even rain and it is finally sweater weather and time to snuggle up in front of the fire with your loved one and in the horizon, I see my favorite Holiday coming up: Christmas. Christmas is a time where families come together to celebrate and eat amazing food. It is a time where we go all out with the decorations and I think that is one of my favorite things to do in December. Decorating for that magical day that Christmas is. There's just something about the vibes around Christmas. All the positiveness and joy. I could honestly go on about Christmas for pages! In this issue, we are going to dive right into that winter and holiday spirit! We have got some beautiful features for you from amazing creators and products that you simply must have for your winter getaway or just at home with your family. No matter the circumstances, this issue of SPACES magazine is sure to put you in that winter spirit. Happy holidays everyone!

SHOWCASE
CLASSIC AND ABSOLUTELY
THYMLESS
Artsy, rustic and stylish. This month's creator showcase focuses on Thymless, master of food and unique yet stylish interiors encapsulating the styles of modern rustic and farmhouse. 17 SPACES MAGAZINE | DECEMBER 2019

The first name you search when you need sandwiches for your office meeting or a sprawling, appetising spread for your dinner party or an artisan wine and cheese gift basket is Thymless. Although responsible for bringing us tasty and mouth-watering food and snacks she has also brought IMVU new style and innovation with her furniture and rooms. Winner of Developer of the Year 2017 at the IMVU Community Awards, Thymless focuses on a modern farmhouse and rustic style, one of the most trending styles of the 2010s alongside modern glam (previously covered in last month's issue with Plugstyles). Yet another gap was in the IMVU catalog yet Thymless came through with her quality and trending designs.

But first, sandwiches
As well as creating quality, industrial and rustic furniture for both residential and commercial, it's no denying that Thymless is a connoisseur of food and catering. Firmly situated amongst other food developers such as MoonWok and HunnyHer, her catalog boasts a myriad of tastsy dishes to accompany any event or situation. From her bagel sandwich boxes for corporate meetings to her platters of doughnuts for cafes, her catalog is full to the brim of mouthwatering goods that will look simply sublime on your dining table as they will in your shop counter. 21 SPACES MAGAZINE | DECEMBER 2019
Unisex decorum
Probably one of the biggest appeals for Thymless and her creations is that many of her creations are unisex, a quality that is - whilst not rare- not as common within the IMVU catalog which caters moreso to females more than males. However, industrial and rustic are two 2010 trends where men and non-feminine women could feel included and Thymless has helped to capture that market. Her palettes mainly consist of neutrals, woods, black, white and other deep winter/autumnal colours as opposed to the light white, beige and pinks that often trends in the catalog. Due to this, everybody can feel at home with her furniture. i remember my own father decorating his entire office with Thymless as her products remain quality, fitting and bespoke for all regardless of interior design experience.
One can also not discuss Thymless without mentioning her extensive range of quality and high end gift sets. I, myself, have frequently gone to Thymless whenever I've needed to gift bottles of champagne and artisan cheese bakets. Afterall, where else would you find a Gin and Condiments box to gift to your new business partner as a thank you for joining your firm? 23 SPACES MAGAZINE | DECEMBER 2019
