LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Here’s the situation: I can’t wait for our kitchen to get finished. My husband Tim is over it completely and, in this photograph, is in hiding. Walter, our 1 year old miniature schnauzer puppy[named for the German Bauhaus architect Walter Gropius], reluctantly posed with me under the condition that he be allowed to bark at the parade of contractors coming into our home without being locked in the bedroom. The project keeps expanding in scope and cost. I have 25 people coming for an early Thanksgiving dinner… Sound familiar?

As we head into the holiday season, designers and architects, as well as their contractors and sub-contractors, suppliers and craftspeople, are often faced with seemingly impossible deadlines to get it done in time for a ‘big event’, be it a Thanksgiving dinner, a fundraiser, a restaurant opening, an office move, or simply the time of year when we traditionally gather and celebrate. I decided to experience this myself, knowing that a week after it’s all done, I will have no memory of washing dishes in the bathroom sink and will only be excited to prepare for our annual ‘Thanksmas’ family get together in a beautiful[and functional] new space. Having seen this scenario play out so many times before, I know that in the end, it’s always worth it.

Gatherings and celebrations are central to our lives and, as such, central to our goal of designing beautiful, comfortable places and spaces in all of our projects with these moments in mind. Of course, the focus of these places to meet, share, and connect are often centered around food and drink; as architects and interior and graphic designers, kitchens, bars, and places to dine are among the most inspiring - and most personal - challenges we encounter.

It takes a lot of expertise and thought to make a special place where both great memories and recipes can be made and shared.

In this fourth issue of H+, we explore the making of places to gather, drink, dine, and celebrate.

In addition to our regular ongoing feature on what H+Aers are reading, watching and listening to, as well as where we are traveling and eating, we have turned our attention to what makes us really tick - collaborating, sharing stories, breaking bread and, as our cover illustrates, takeout from the Buttery and Myers and Chang! For our main feature, the ‘Making of a Restaurant’, we created a scrapbook of sorts to illustrate all of the people, choices, details, decisions, and efforts that have gone into making our latest restaurant in Kendall Square, Glass House. We were thrilled to work with The Briar Group and BioMed on this venture and to be able to showcase our interdisciplinary approach to design, from laying out the space to selecting the furnishings and developing the restaurant’s identity. Glass House will open as you get this magazine and we hope to see you there!

On a more domestic scale, we, along with our clients and collaborators, deconstruct three of our most memorable kitchens from the past few years, highlighting the details that made a difference. In ‘Anatomy of a Kitchen’, we take that one step further by diagramming one of our most recent kitchen projects for noted restaurateur Pat Lyons. We also riff on the closing of New York’s legendary Four Seasons restaurant and why it was important to us to bring a piece of that history into our new office…In fact, as we plan for our January move back to SoWa in the South End, no project in our studio has elicited more debate than the design of our new H+A kitchen Let’s get 25 designer types to talk about the ‘right’ way to make coffee… In perhaps my favorite feature, H+A designers explore the artistry of plating food in a uniquely design focused way. I was blown away by the results! Hungry yet? As a ‘sweet’ end note, our guest foodie Tim Grafft shares 10 worth-the-trip places to get a classic dessert in New England culled from his highly coveted ‘list’.

Finally, I want to offer a special thank you to Poggenpohl kitchens, Clarke Sub Zero Wolf and Monaco Johnson general contracting for making my own kitchen project so rewarding. Along with all of the other participants and advertisers in this issue, we are proud to work with the best!

We hope you enjoy it and all of us at H+A wish you happy gatherings this holiday season!

The Making of a Restaurant FROM A BLANK CANVAS, TO OPENING DAY.

Glass House Restaurant & Bar opened in Cambridge's Kendall Square neighborhood in November 2016. This Briar Group establishment was a joint collaboration with BioMed Realty who developed and operates the building at 450 Kendall Street where the eatery is located. H+A partnered with them to develop a vision for the space and then to make it a reality with John Moriarty & Associates. This empty, unfinished shell, waiting for the right team to come along and give it an identity, is where it all started.

Team noted: Austin O'Connor, Tom Shea, Todd Bennett, Hannah Huke, Ben Hennemuth, Jessica O'Neil, Salvatore Zinno, David Hacin, Matthew Arnold, Christine Rankin Manke, Rebecca Rivers, Emily Neumann, Mike Frias, Brian Cooper

NAMES EXPLORED

The restaurant includes over 5,200 square feet of dining, prep, cooking, storage, and utility space.

The team brainstormed 27 different possible names for the restaurant before deciding on 'Glass House'.

TRIP TO CANADA We started the project with a trip to Toronto, Ontario in Canada to gather inspiration from the city's bourgeoning hospitality scene.

Starting with a Concept.

When the Briar Group decided to open a restaurant at BioMed Realty's 450 Kendall Street building in Cambridge, it created another opportunity to work with H+A. Sal Zinno of BioMed worked with the team to establish the parameters of what was wanted for the space: an everyday establishment, serving the public, with a dual purpose of providing a dedicated space for meetings, events, and social activities for the Kendall Square community. H+A and the Briar Group previously collaborated on Gather Restaurant at District Hall - another multifunctional space in an innovation hub - so the idea was familiar. The concept, design, and operation had to focus on more than just a restaurant or a bar. The aesthetic needed to appeal to a specific, yet broad clientele, and it needed a theme and a name. So when you start with a blank canvas like this, where, exactly, do you start? For us, it was Toronto.

Toronto trip was intended to encourage everyone to " The think creatively. I wanted a restaurant as unique as the building and unlike the other restaurants in the area. I think that Glass House is definitely going to be distinctive compared to any other restaurant in Cambridge. I also think that we’ve accomplished the same with the building. The neuron is like nothing else in the area and the Soso lobby installation and associated lighting system is also pretty unique. - Sal

"

team trip to Toronto was perfectly timed. " The After initial concept ideation and some basic floorplan layouts of the Cambridge space, the trip was a real life exploration of applications of hospitality concepts in modern ground level glass spaces. It helped validate many of the groups’ ideas and fostered a great collaborative creative process. - Tom

"

are always looking to New York or other " People cities we're more familiar with for design precedents, but Toronto and Montreal are some of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world, and yet they're sometimes off our radar. There was a lot to learn about what's going on up there, especially their diverse and multi-ethnic food scene. - David

"

18

we knew from the beginning that " Since we would be operating a dedicated event space within the restaurant, we needed to come up with creative and interesting ways to activate the rest of the space during those events. That was one of the earliest concepts the team used to build upon for the rest of the design. - Todd

"

wanted to start this project with a fresh perspective, " We and traveling to Toronto allowed us to do that. After speed-dating our way through restaurants ranging from super sleek and modern to overly eclectic, we had a better language for what we wanted the restaurant to be and what we absolutely did not want it to be. The most valuable part was spending a day together as a group - It was a rare opportunity and I wish we could start off every project that way.

- Christine

"

of the first things Sal said to me was that he " One wanted a space that was different from all the others. He said, 'I want you to smell the coffee beans to clear your palate,' (so I actually brought coffee beans to the first meeting with Sal!)...

That’s one of the reasons we went to Toronto, to find inspiration. - Matthew

"

19

I wanted the design and aesthetic of the space to be similar to the building... quality finishes, not overdone, with clean lines, but also not cold or uninviting. I think that the abundance of natural materials helped to offset the abundance of glass and aluminum at the storefront. It’s a nice balance. - Sal

Designing the space.

One parameter established early in the design process was the need for a private dining space used for a range of events throughout the day and evening but which also allows the restaurant to continue to operate for the public. We developed the idea of a “room within a room” which evolved into the “conservatory”, a glass space with a large window and door system. The room operates autonomously but also feels integrated when functioning as a traditional dining room. As the formal dining atmosphere winds down for the evening, the dining room can be closed off, concentrating the activity around the two bars. With the restaurant located off the main street, placing the main bar in a visible corner was intentional to appear busy throughout the day.

design process was a " The blast! We took advantage

of the full spectrum of our in house design talent - from architecture to interiors, graphic design to custom fabrication - and the clients were full partners in the vision. A rare and wonderful collaborative experience!

Creating interior style.

FABRIC SWATCHES FOR DRAPERY AND UPHOLSTERY

Although we had established an aesthetic direction for the space, we still needed to develop an interior style for the restaurant. The clients had a vision of the space as a modern day ‘meeting house' - a comfortable, everyday establishment in which to gather. To bring this vision to life, every interior element was carefully considered to make sure it fit this design story. Beyond aesthetics, the furniture and lighting required vetting to ensure it would be flexible and functional for this multipurpose space serving the surrounding community from morning to night. The seating needed to be comfortable for a long dinner but casual enough for an informal lunch; stackable and light enough to be stored away for events, but heavy and durable enough for daily use; with upholstery designed to last. The lighting had to be both warm and inviting for evening bar crowds but also bright and cheery for corporate meetings.

Our commitment to become a meeting space in addition to a hospitality venue required the space to be more flexible in design and selections of furniture.

Certainly, in the role of operator, it was important that the excitement for design be compatible with operational function. - Tom

SOME OF THE MENU DESIGNS

the restaurant is " Marketing so integral to the branding, and since the architecture, interiors, and branding were all being designed together at H+A from one concept, it allowed for a fully cohesive idea and experience. -Hannah

"

Branding the idea.

H+A developed a a branding concept inspired entirely by the visionary identity of Cambridge’s Kendall Square. Once the center of the nation’s glass-making industry, East Cambridge's glass houses attracted artisans from across the globe and produced patents for cutting edge glassworks of its day. Today, Kendall Square remains a hub of innovation. The image of a man looking through binoculars is emblematic for the vision, discovery, and optimism of the neighborhood's creative minds. The visual branding combines a modern geometric style with a retro, playful spirit, and its logo represents the ‘glass house’ room within the restaurant, and that next big idea on the horizon. We produced our own photography, and created menus, business cards, gift cards, t-shirts, custom wallpapers, over ten types of signage, and even worked with a local artisan to create custom-designed glass panels. Ryan Grafft, our 'man with binoculars' recently moved to Boston and works at innovation industry leader, General Electric.

FIGURES FROM THE PHOTOSHOOT SHOWN IN FINAL WALLPAPER DESIGN + SIGNAGE

Modeling for this branding project gave me a whole new appreciation for what professional models do. I learned that making a pose look “natural” for the camera means having to hold what are actually very unnatural poses – and sometimes for quite a long time...I don’t know how many jumps it took or how long I held those binoculars to get just the perfect shots!

SELECTING AND REFINING THE FINISH OF THE LIGHT OAK BOARDS FOR THE WALLS + CEILING

Working on the custom-designed patterned glass panels was complex, but highly rewarding. We collaborated with artist, Kai Colombo, of Shards Studio in Peabody, MA on the fabrication, which had to be coordinated with frames built by yet another fabricator.

Kai's expertise on material and scale was invaluable, and the final result looks fantastic. - Emily

THE UNFINISHED MURAL WALL IN THE DINING ROOM MAKING PROGRESS OVER A FEW WEEKS 26

As a designer, one of the hardest parts of the process is construction. Inevitably, despite all the hard design work and careful planning, not everything can always be built exactly as planned.

Unexpected site conditions or constraints always come up. You have to remain flexible and willing to create alternative solutions when the unexpected arises. - Rebecca

SELECTING FILM FOR THE GLASS

AUGUST 2016

When designing a unique space, there's still a concern about functionality and durability. We were concerned about honing the already polished darker marble bar top slab, but a polished stone can't always take the food stains expected for a restaurant bar top. The stone supplier did some testing to see what held up the best. - Matthew

MARBLE AND TILE FINISHES IN THE RESTROOMS

THE BAR, AND RAW BAR BEYOND

Building it.

Once construction began, the first order of business was raising the floor level almost three feet. The design had organized many of the services within the floor to allow for the taller ceiling height, but it also meant that planning where things were located - like the 60 bar taps, the bar and raw bar, power, plumbing, and other equipment - needed to be extremely precise. Once the floor was brought up to level with the entry grade, everything else could progress. And because the entire exterior facade is glass, many elements normally hidden from view had nowhere to hide, so lighting, visibility, and acoustics figured significantly when proofing materials and finishes during the process. There were also challenges when many of the items or finishes specified for the space were delayed in production, difficult to source, or discontinued unexpectedly. Working together was key to coming up with the right solutions.

EAT COOK RELAX

The owners of this Beacon Hill home, restaurateur Pat Lyons and his wife, Kristina, arrived with a passionately full slate of ideas for their kitchen, the size of which was constrained by the building’s existing brick walls and adjacent open living area. An entertainment venue proprietor, he needed a robust chef’s kitchen with tools and supplies at the ready. Meanwhile she envisioned a quiet “coffee shop” with a built-in window seat and an informal family dining bar. The solution arrived in a hardworking L-shaped island that organizes the kitchen into three zones, each with its own character.

The Smitten Kitchen started as a blog and quickly grew a cult following as Deb Perelman’s recipes gained respect with foodies everywhere. Her recipe book feels like something that has been passed down in a family for generations. The food is simple, made from natural ingredients, and completely indulgent. I am partial to the cakes and pies. Her baking recipes take some practice but they are fun to make with a friend or two, and the payoff for all your hard work is delicious.

Chef's Table, docu-series

Netflix’s Chef’s Table has its fair share of droolworthy food shots, but it’s the focus on each chef’s philosophy that sets this series apart. The men and women featured come across passionate and accessible unlike the celebrity chefs written about so often. A personal favorite is Chef Francis Mallmann who’s zest for outdoor cooking in fire pits made me want to bury some lobsters in my backyard. A new 4-episode season was just realeased this fall and it doesn't disappoint.

It was directed by Nat Faxon and Jim Rash, and filmed on Boston’s South Shore in 2013. [Tim Grafft] Cooked, docu-series

Michael Pollan’s new series Cooked, takes a science-based approach to food in four-episodes titled “Fire,” “Water,” “Air,” and “Earth.” This is not food porn. Pollan, known for best-selling books such as The Omnivore’s Dilemma, always brings a political and environmental edge to his stories. A favorite segment is focused on bread-making and gluten intolerance. He has a fascinating opinion on why this issue has become so prevalent in our society. A Berkshire’s bakery is featured, and we can’t wait to order from them! [Jennifer Clapp, Jeremy Robertson] Chef, film

Chef stars Jon Favreau as Carl Casper, a divorced father of one who might be hitting a mid-life crisis. In an unfortunate run-in with a less-than-kind food critic Carl embarrasses himself yelling at the critic on video, which goes viral. With his tail between his legs he ventures to Miami with his son to start a food truck. Their trip back to California is a learning experience for both and could be classified as half food-porn and half heart-warming.

Naco Taco is a temporary restaurant operating out of a building that is slated for redevelopment. Instead of building a typical kitchen, the kitchen is entirely within a food truck giving the owner the option for relocated the kitchen at a later day. This is an interesting use for a building that might have otherwise sat vacant until it was redeveloped in the coming years. The large patio and the presence of the food truck activate the patio create a lively summer time hangout spot along busy Mass Ave. [Matthew Arnold] The Painted Burro, Davis Square

What’s more festive than a Mexican restaurant? The Painted Burro is one of my favorites when looking to celebrate an occasion with friends. The music and décor give off a celebratory vibe as soon as you walk in. I especially love the large high top tables near the bar – big enough for a group dinner but casual enough to feel part of the bar scene. The food is pretty fantastic too!

Preserving history while creating a flexible space for the modern family A historic 19th century Beacon Hill townhouse was reinvented to create a more open, flexible and family-friendly residence. The challenge for architect David Hacin and the H+A team was to reorganize the traditional hierarchy and relationship of rooms and floors within its historically protected and preserved shell. The ground floor was transformed to an open plan for the family and kitchen spaces, with a historic oval staircase rebuilt at its center.

The “gut” renovation included the full redesign of the formal dining and kitchen area, making it a fully functional, integrated family/dining space. Rosemary Porto, Senior Designer, Poggenpohl Boston worked with the H+A team to include all the necessary functional components for a busy family kitchen while maintaining the clean lines of a modern space.

The new kitchen plan combines workspace, dining area and sitting room altogether in one place. The appliances are integrated into a wall of white Poggenpohl cabinetry, while the granite “waterfall-style” island functions both as

meal prep workspace and the “container” for a moveable and expandable dining table, substituting for a formal dining room. A built-in sofa adds an element of casual comfort to the area, making it feel even more like a family gathering space.

High Gloss Polar white lacquer was chosen as the timeless finish to set off the warm wood tones used throughout the dining and lounging spaces. Discrete brushed aluminum handles highlight the strong horizontal language of the design. The Poggenpohl integral backsplash system with floated shelves and a towel rack keep the counters neat and tidy.

Throughout the home, simple millwork and furnishings like those in the kitchen consistently contrast with original restored historic details. This juxtaposition of materials, patterns and forms in both the architecture and the interiors reinforces the relationship between the history of the home and its revitalized present. This extensive, even daunting renovation is a triumph in every respect.

THE FOUR SEASONS

55

fter the opening of the Four Seasons in 1959, a journalist wrote, "I want to return often, as often as my money lasts, because I believe this restaurant is a culminating symbol of the Fifties."

Designed by renowned architect Philip Johnson, in Manhattan's Seagram Building (designed by Bauhaus architect, Mies van der Rohe) the restaurant was dubbed 'the most expensive restaurant ever built'. Decked out in artwork that rivaled that of New York's best galleries, the Four Seasons itself was designed as art. Johnson said it was an architect's dream job, because the budget and the extent to which design could influence every single item in the place was unbounded. From the Garth and Ada Louise Huxtable-designed silverware and serving carts, to the furniture designed by Mies van der Rohe, Hans Wegner, Eero Saarinen, and Philip Johnson himself, everything in this place was .

And we haven't even mentioned the clientele yet.

Intended as the first really contemporary American restaurant reflecting New York City's role at the crossroads of the world, this is where the 'power lunch' was invented. On any given day for decades, the restaurant would be graced by the presence of high profile patrons from Vogue's Anna Wintour, to President John F. Kennedy, and even the Dalai Lama himself once dined there.

We have our own memories of the Four Seasons, too. David Hacin celebrated his 21st birthday with his father, and his 20th anniversary with husband Tim there, and the H+A team dined there together in 2007 on a New York design visit. When the restaurant announced it would close in July 2016, it was somber news for many.

Headlines the following day voiced astonishment at the record-breaking totals.

Held in the Grill Room and Pool Room of The Four Seasons restaurant, hundreds of bidders were in attendance and thousands more (like us) were bidding via phone and online until the wee hours of the following morning. As the first item went up to bid - the bronze Four Seasons sign - it was clear within seconds after 10am that it would sell for far beyond its estimated sale price of $5,000-7,000. The auctioneer, Richard Wright himself seemed stunned when the hammer finally came down, it selling for $120,000. Indeed, it set the tone for the rest of the day and every single lot that followed. When Philip Johnson's corner banquette came up for auction, the bidding escalated so quickly that Wright said at one point, "We're at $9,500 and I can't even keep up." With a low estimate of $3,000, the final sale price was $35,000.

The auction broke records totaling at $4,105,623 - over four times the original estimate. If there was ever a question of whether people's memories and emotional attachments to spaces and things influence appraisals of value, the Four Seasons auction answered it with a resounding, "YES."

The live auction online via web and app was fascinating, moving so quickly much of the time that before you could swipe to bid, someone else had beaten you to it.

Objet d'art noun plural noun: objets d'art a small decorative or artistic object that is valued because it is beautiful or interesting, or has a meaningful value to the owner; an object with artistic value Why do we have the things we have in our homes? As designers we often ask if an object complements the space it is in, if it fits the aesthetic, and if it serves a function.

The little things on our shelves, by our bedsides, and in our cupboards often do not, and we feel compelled to keep them anyway. The things we value and keep with us over many years are imbued with meaning defined by our own lives, relationships, and experiences that surrounded those objects. Many times they are beautiful, exquisite pieces of art, but other times these objects defy our sense of beauty, embodying a charm of their own, or a memory we wish to hold onto. Our team shares some of our own objets d'art and the stories behind them.

Vintage Car Catalogs [David Hacin] As a teenager I loved cars and collected fancy car catalogs. I've kept them since as a reminder of my childhood and as graphic inspiration.

2 Venetian Glass Bowl [Matthew Woodward] Purchased by my in-laws while stationed abroad, this piece may be eccentric but it symbolizes both my husband's childhood in Europe as well as my father-in-law's dedicated service to the US Air Force.

3 Recipe Book [Rebecca Rivers] This is a collection of recipes and other tips, like napkin folding from the Volusia County Orchid Society which my grandfather started. It reminds me of visiting him and walking through his greenhouse as a child.

4 Wood Toy [Christine + Matthew Manke] This wooden doll on a stick with 'fidgety legs' is just a weird old wooden toy that we found at an estate sale. We like it because it makes us laugh.

72

5

1963 Glass Corvette [Matthew Arnold] My uncle gave this to me before he moved to Seattle, WA. At the time, he was living with my mother and I, and I was sad that he was leaving. He gave me the model to remember him by. It's one of the very few things I've brought with me from apartment to apartment for the last two decades.

6 Danish Salt Dish + Spoon [Christine + Matthew Manke] The wooden spoon guy holds salt and its own wooden spoon for serving. It belonged to Matthew's mother.

9

10 Pepper Mill [Jeremy Robertson] This pepper mill was designed by Italian architect Ettore Sottsass, with a grinding mechanism by Peugeot. My wife, Rita, bought it on a visit to Germany after having used a roommate's many years ago. It has inspired a lifelong appreciation for cooking...and eating!

11

7

Curious Object [David Hacin] My best friend gave this to me as a host gift at dinner one evening, instead of bringing a bottle of wine. It was memorable and is a beautiful object of curiosity. We don't know for sure what it is, but we use it for serving butter.

8 Handmade Mini-Mouse [Jeffrey Brown] This is a handcrafted present and keepsake from a six year old daughter, in clay, and colorfully rendered.

Alessi Bowl [Eduardo Serrate] I bought this Alessi bowl with my first paycheck after college graduation. It's an heirloom in the making.

Matryoshka Dolls [Christine Manke] I started collecting Matryoshka dolls when I was little and my dad traveled to Moscow.

These and the little red doll (see #22) are just two from my collection.

12 Wooden Spoon Rest [Srishti Goyal] My dad used to love to carve small pieces of wood into random things like this. He gave this to my mom (who loves to cook) early on in their relationship. She kept it in her kitchen ever since, but I stole it when I moved into my own apartment, as a reminder of home.

35

13 Tin Box [Christine + Matthew Manke] This tin box is Norwegian. We picked it up in a little antique store in the middle of nowhere while driving across Norway.

14 Vintage Ledger Book [Jennifer Clapp] I found a box of these buried in my late great uncle's attic recently. They are from his time as a hotel owner in Atlantic City but many are blank so I thought they should be used for my notes at H+A, fulfilling their purpose that my uncle started 70 years ago.

15 Cutting Board [Matthew Manke] This Danish rosemailing cutting board was passed down from my grandmother.

16 Rooster Key Chain [Christine + Matthew Manke] This is a keepsake from our honeymoon in Kauai, Hawaii. We had an incident with a rooster on our first night in Hawaii that landed Matthew in the hospital.

17 1930's S & P Shakers [Emily Neumann] I inherited these characters from the collection of a great uncle who had a wacky sense of humor. I love their expressions and they remind me that you can find humor in almost anything.

18 Bronze Turtle [David Tabenken] The turtle was rescued from my grandfather's scrap metal shop in New London, CT and lived in my bedroom where the hidden compartment under its hinged shell kept my baby teeth for years.

19 Shaker Box [Jeffrey Brown] This box is from the Union Village Settlement in Ohio near where my grandmother grew up.

It fit her neat German aesthetic and it would always have assorted chocolates when I visited as a child. It now holds my keepsakes, like a baby cap that my grandmother knit.

20 RSD2 Coffee Mug [Russell Higgins] Star Wars is the first movie I remember seeing and my mother made this mug for me because I was so obsessed with it. I've had it for close to 40 years now.

21 Copper Candle Lantern [Rob Clocker] This is a family heirloom I received from my mom when I was in college and I've kept it with me since. It casts a meditative pattern of light when a candle is lit inside.

22 Matryoshka Doll [Christine Manke] Another doll from my collection. See #11 for further explanation.

23 Rubber Ducky [Rebecca Rivers] Every summer, Bill Zimmerman from Miliken Carpet invites H+A to sail on his boat, Miris Grata, in Boston Harbor. The duck has the boat's name on it and reminds me that summer is always around the corner!

24 Bat Skeleton [Jennifer Clapp] I love that this was one of my husband's most successful and romantic gifts. It says how well he knows me.

25 Brass Nutcracker [David Tabenken] When my grandmother moved out of her house in Maine in the early 1990s I snagged her small collection of bronze and brass curiosities, including this pair of brass lady-leg nutcrackers.

26 Antique IOOF Ribbon Badge [Jennifer Clapp] Discovered in a bequeathed attic, this 'Independent Order of Odd Fellows' ribbon from Millstone, NJ is one of many that always conjure images of smoky secret clubs.

27 Green tinted bottles [Hillary Faccio] My mom dug up these old bottles used to hold ink, medicine, beer, and Florida water, found in her wooded back lot in CT. 28 Handmade Coaster [Michelangelo Latona] This coaster was handmade by a friend from graduate school and was gifted to me and my wife Kate for our wedding. I love it because it always reminds me of our wedding day and the reception.

30 Cake Knife [Aimee Epstein Norton] My grandparents used this knife to cut their wedding cake when they got married in 1953 and it has been used in many family weddings, most recently mine, over the last 63 years.

31 Pink Robot [Hillary Faccio] This was a birthday gift. I love it because it has a lot of moving parts, like the eyes that move left and right, and makes robotic noises when you position them.

32 Beach Stones [Elizabeth Dame] My family has been going to Cape Cod together every summer for 26 years, and Nauset Beach has a seemingly endless supply of beautiful beach stones that amass at the shoreline. Each July we collect handfuls to take home, oil them to bring out their colors and make them appear still wet from the ocean, and keep them on our tables as centerpieces until next year’s gathering.

33 Vintage Japanese Children's Books [Jennifer Clapp] My Gram was a children's librarian and loved illustration. She brought these home for my mother who eventually became an illustrator herself.

34 Table Cloth [Elizabeth Dame] My grandfather’s mother died when he was a boy. Her sister, Anna, was born in County Cork, Ireland in 1898 but moved to America to help her late sister’s widower raise his six sons. Anna crocheted this intricate 4’ x 7’ table cloth in her down time, and when she ran out of white yarn she simply finished the last couple of rows in a beige that she had on hand.

35 Glass & Copper Sculpture [Hillary Faccio] I cast this sculpture in hot glass and I love it because it has crazy shiny copper wires sticking out in all directions.

29 Cesar Pelli S&P Shakers [David Hacin] These salt & pepper shakers represent the postmodern era. They were a gift at a time when I didn't appreciate the style, but eventually grew into loving them.
