Successful Kickstarter Campaign for Phil Campbell
After year's in the making, it was great to see that our little table, made from a devastated Phil Campbell tree, is beginning to make a difference. Congrats to our friends Andrew Reed, Brooklyn Phil Campbell and all the Phil Campbells around the world who have worked tirelessly for our neighboring community.
Doors - were (or were not) inspired by. . .
The aesthetic (of these two new solid walnut+ doors, either was or was not inspired by our local Frank Lloyd Wright house. Honestly, I'm not sure. Consciously, it was not. But last week, after I delivered the Phil Campbell table back to the Rosenbaum House Gift Shop (for a few more weeks on display), as i was driving off, in my peripherals, I noticed almost the same design/balance/aesthetic in the exterior wall of the home. With closer inspection, Director Libby Jordan, reminded me that the walls are a good example of Wright's Usonian construction; Cedar interior and exterior sandwiching pine.
Either way, inspired specifically by the Rosenbaum House board and batten design or not, I'm quite proud to see - even just a glimmer of similarity in "our ;)" work.
Just to be clear, if there's any confusion, he's the master. No Question. I'm honored to be the student.
