We value experiences over things. We believe in buying better and buying less. But we also love finding and buying (beautiful, well-made) things. In Why Do We Have Things?, Rita Mehta of The American Edit and Erin Husted of Hackwith Design House talk to designers, artists and small business owners about things - why they make them, how they buy them, and the positive and negative impacts they can have on our lives.
