Let's Voyage into the New American House
Let's Voyage into the New American House
Richard Brautigan
There are doors
that want to be free
from their hinges to
fly with perfect clouds.
There are windows
that want to be
released from their
frames to run with
the deer through
back country meadows.
There are walls
that want to prowl
with the mountains
through the early
morning dusk.
There are floors
that want to digest
their furniture into
flowers and trees.
There are roofs
that want to travel
gracefully with
the stars through
circles of darkness.

Apartment Therapy Design Evenings: Mira Nakashima of Nakashima Studios
Wednesday, April 6: 6:30pm - 8:30pm
ABC Carpet & Home
888 Broadway NYC
After recently reading George Nakashima's "The Soul of a Tree," I'm so excited to be able to attend this presentation from his daughter and now Creative Director of Nakashima Studios, Mira Nakashima. Reading his words has altered my entire perspective on how I approach my craft. Even attempting to understand the peace Nakashima found in his work truely is a life pursuit.
"A tree is perhaps our most intimate contact with nature — each tree, each part of a tree, has its own particular destiny, its own special yearning to be fulfilled."
