Field Notes

A suitcase cottage where the postcards keep arriving.

Resident Fern, the accidental cartographer

The little story

Field Notes

Field Notes is a suitcase cottage with a folded-map roof, a tiny globe by the path and a postcard that has already arrived from somewhere next door. It looks like it has just come back from a trip and has not unpacked yet.

Fern maps places by how they feel. Fern is an accidental cartographer who gives directions like turn left at the really good bread, and who is happy to be a little lost on purpose. Ask for the way and expect a story.

The casa is for keeping the trip and the feeling together: a page of notes, stamps and the places you are curious about next. Come in, drop your bag and leave a postcard on the step.
