You lived your life unapologetically in a world so far from my own. An environment I’ll never fully understand. A life you chose. Love you Dad, fly high.

What about the most important era in a home’s history? Not the shiny new build many years ago. Not the curated restoration of the current era. But what the home was intended for and is often not thought of.

The tangible history of morning rituals, birthday parties, family arguments, cannonballs into the pool. The durable materials with patina that have gotten to the end of their wear.
