Our surroundings matter as they can satisfy our soul through our vision. We choose ornaments to beautify our habitat. A piece for the corner, a vase for the coffee table, a designer shade, and so many. Why such ornaments become an integral part of our lives? Why do we get pulled to such luxuries? We know we can live without them but won’t choose to do so! Depicting a form of soul satisfaction through materialistic objects.
