 🏡 🦌 🪴 Spontaneously bought an 1900s farmhouse and cottage on 5 acres of land in the middle of the woods in my (very rural hometown in America) on a whim—and I was hooked. I started writing about my daily observations about how this side of the world lived—scrapple! check writing! outdoor wood stoves! everyone loves mowing the lawn!—and it became something I really enjoyed. It made me reflect on the other places I'd lived around the world, and how their social norms, beliefs, behaviors, and mentalities could be reflected right inside their living rooms. 

🤓 🕵🏻‍♀️ 🔎 After several years, I decided this was a project that needed to be brought into the world. I wanted to call it, "In Bed with Ash Ambirge," but knew that no one would know how to pronounce my name. 🤣 Instead, I decided to go with the much more original option, HOUSES WITH ASH. The weekly newsletter is my new favorite thing ever, and a podcast and book series are in the works, where I'll be physically taking you inside strangers' homes around the world, so you can try on life somewhere new.

🖼️ 🪴🎨 And, at the same time? I found myself dreaming about my own wallpaper line, because turns out? I LOVE WALLPAPER. I will wallpaper all the houses. I will wallpaper all the living rooms. I will wallpaper YOUR FACE. Specifically, though, my style has always been unique in that I adore pairing classic design with an edgy twist—think pearls and leather jackets—and am excited to bring this vibe to my very own line of travel-inspired wallpaper, called WITPAPER, launching soon!


Lookout, world! ASH IS COMING IN.
