fireside.

Imagine that fireside feeling. Have you experienced it? Huddled close together with people you care about, conversation and campfire snacks flowing, then occasionally it all stops and you’re quietly sitting together listening to the satisfying crackle. What a sweet time it is.

A fire draws people in and keeps a close circle. If we go back to a time before all the technology we have today, people were often in a closer physical space. Imagine, before central heat, if you wanted to stay warm you would have to gather around the fire. Before the smartphone and internet, you would have to physically move to a shared telephone on the wall or even talk to someone in person. Now with heat in every room and wifi blasting through the walls, it seems we became more isolated, but we don’t have to be.
