A gray sky day was perfect for a site visit to this nearly-complete wet weather station at the entry to Georgetown–from the wide open Operations Building, the passersby can see their hard work through the glass, while the operators can keep a literal eye on many parts of The Station.

“When I come across a building that has developed a special presence in connection with the place it stands in, I sometimes feel that it is imbued with an inner tension that refers to something over and above the place itself.

The finished Blossom Side Table for New Essentials (swipe to see it en route to Bianco Gallery in style!) In the spirit of the New Essentials show, we submitted this table because this kind of table is and can be everywhere. This particular design is one that endeavored to bring utility and delight, cheerful color and craft together to become something that is indispensable for the home.

Envisioned as a retreat for a landscape photographer and her family, the materials of original cedar and stone Yosemite cabins inspired the timeless shape and character of this home near the National Park.
