“There is a part of our world that is playing on abundance, on glitz and glamour and there is another part that is concentrated on refinement, and basically making beautiful objects.”

Delicious coffee served in a tiny basement with a ceiling height of 5' -11". Floor plan is roughly a square of maybe 18' by 22' packed with many super duper smart Harvard undergrads. Ha.
