Brooke Foster
When she’s not working on ShelterPop (and even when she is), editor Brooke Lea Foster is often daydreaming about how she’ll decorate her first beach house. (Think: shabby chic, modern, gauzy linens and lots of beach glass!) A former Homes editor at The Boston Globe Sunday Magazine, Brooke credits her love of all things design to her mother, who dragged her to one too many antique stores and craft fairs growing up. After renovating a Craftsman bungalow and designing her dream kitchen two years ago, Brooke, her husband, John, and their mutt, Sadie, sold their house and moved to Manhattan. This could explain her latest obsession: how to live better in small spaces.
