Juan Sotoโ€™s value to the Mets extends well beyond home runs โšพ

Citi Field generated record ballpark revenue in 2025:
๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ Attendance reached approximately 3.2 million
๐Ÿฅ‚ Premium-seat revenue nearly doubled
๐ŸŒญ Concession revenue climbed 55%

The best design details are often the quietest ones โœจ

A room can feel expensive without anything screaming for attention.

Look at the details:
๐Ÿ”˜ Switch plates and hardware
๐Ÿ“ Softened corners
๐Ÿชต Custom millwork
๐ŸŽจ Subtle colour pairings
๐Ÿ›‹๏ธ Storage designed around real life

Good design is often something you feel before you consciously notice it.

It also uses:
๐ŸŽจ Confident colour
๐Ÿ›‹๏ธ Restored vintage furniture
๐Ÿ“š A tucked-away library nook
โœจ Statement lighting

Limited square footage does not require limited personality.
