The Primary Essentials, Home Decor & Gift Shop in Brooklyn NY

The Primary Essentials is a Brooklyn shop with an edited mix for the home, informed by practical aesthetics.

This month we are reading Neptune Papers while lying on pillows in shades of burgundy and chocolate brown.

Every month, we send a list of current finds, spanning the arts, goings-on in the city, and tastes that are top of mind. Our journal offers the same, in longer form.

Everything here is chosen by Lauren Snyder, a stylist by trade and instinct. The shop shifts as she does, but the thread running through it stays the same: A belief that good design isn’t just about how something looks. It’s also about how it lives alongside you.
