For the past year or so I’ve had the pleasure of working with the great folks at the Botanical Research Institute of Texas (BRIT), based in Fort Worth, Texas.

A few months ago I worked on a project with a former co-worker who now works at a design firm in Laguna Beach, California. We launched the site without delay, but I mistakenly delayed in writing a post for my own site. John Wooden Interiors (JWI) is a full service design firm specializing in high-end [...]
