Why, hello

I’m Kelsey Keith, a creative director by day and a writer/editor for life. After a dozen years in New York design media, I up and moved to the Bay Area where—among other things—I started this newsletter, Ground Condition.

Ground Condition might be for you, if:

• you agree that design is culture.

• you miss shelter magazines.

• you follow at least three archival interiors accounts on Instagram.

• you think everything is too beige, both literally and figuratively.

• you’ve ever hugged concrete or caressed a brick.

• you appreciate everything from conversation pits to Shaker cabinets.

Stay up-to-date

I send emails monthly (usually on a Tuesday) with some extras every now and then. Each new issue of the newsletter goes directly to your inbox.
