Bell’occhio

Secret gardens in Paris, hidden courtyards, a door left ajar…

In the midst of the rubble that is often San Francisco these days, especially along the stretch of Market Street adjacent to a tiny street that barely registers on Google Maps, there is a tiny parallel universe where time stands still if at all.

I am a retailer’s nightmare. I hate to shop. It’s the last thing I want to do on a day off. Covid-19 has changed all that. I long for the small secret spaces where I can satisy my fetish for useful things I will probably never actually use.

Bell’occhio is one of those spaces that seems to exist outside the Copernican limitiations of space and time that we call reality. This is where I find unexpected necessities, the things that are essential simply because they have no purpose but to delight the senses.
