For anyone who dreams of a home filled with well-organized closets, eye-catching flower arrangements, perfectly draped blankets, and thoughtfully curated shelves, here is a guide to cultivating an elegant home. 

Yumiko Sekine, founder of the internationally celebrated lifestyle brand Fog Linen Work, shares lovely rituals and simple techniques based on Japanese traditions, including practices for decorating, organizing, preparing food, and more. From the kitchen to the bedroom and every space in between, here are tips for refreshing a home each season—arranging and displaying fresh flowers in spring, choosing the right sheets and linens for summer, taking warm herbal baths in autumn, and draping blankets and layering rugs to cozy up a space for winter.

Advance Praise

“We’re grateful to Yumiko Sekine of Fog Linen for introducing us to a new world of quietly beautiful household and clothing essentials from Japan. At Remodelista, we’ve all incorporated her subtle, refined, unshowy, and eminently useful pieces into our everyday lives. Now, in Simplicity at Home, we get a further glimpse into her design philosophy and her devotion to sustainability and slow living—plus a first look at her enchanting new Tokyo home.”—Julie Carlson, Editor-in-Chief, Remodelista

“As a longtime fan of Yumiko’s and a loyal customer of Fog Linen Work, I am thrilled for this book. These pages synthesize the minimal, beautiful, and gentle philosophy that drew me to her work to begin with. At a time when the world feels chaotic, Yumiko’s Japanese rituals and ideas bring calmness and purpose.”—Aran Goyoaga, author of Cannelle et Vanille

“Yumiko has been a part of my home for the better part of a decade—and it’s more than just her Fog Linen Work towels, aprons, and napkins. It’s her sensibility, captured beautifully in this book. Simplicity at Home embodies the idea that a pared down life of intention leaves space for all sorts of moments, magic, and rituals to be explored.”—Heidi Swanson, author of Super Natural Cooking
