Design Milk is launching a recurring series called "Take 5," where team members share their personal design favorites twice a month. The series provides an intimate look into the design preferences and aesthetic choices that inspire the publication's editorial staff in their daily lives.

This week's installment features Senior Contributing Editor Vy Yang, who will be sharing five carefully selected items that represent her personal design philosophy. The series is designed to offer readers a more personal perspective on design, moving beyond professional reviews to showcase the types of designs that team members genuinely love and appreciate in their own homes and lives.

The "Take 5" format allows each participating team member to reveal their individual design sensibilities and the pieces that speak to them on a personal level. According to the series concept, these selections range from miniature paintings to modern candy stores, demonstrating the diverse range of design interests within the Design Milk team.

The bi-monthly series represents Design Milk's effort to create a more personal connection with their audience by sharing the authentic design preferences of their editorial team. This approach offers readers insight into the people behind the publication and the design elements that influence their curatorial decisions and editorial choices.
