The Power of the "Imprinted" Object:
Much like watches...books, art, and other personal items can possess a great amount of meaning, intention, and emotional weight—transcending time & original purpose.
This set of books has been in my family since they were new—the oldest one from London, circa 1677. Held together with ribbon and hope, it's embedded with generations of patina from familial readers, note-takers, and at least a couple of Scotch drinkers 😉
I've alway been inspired by the crisp typography, elaborate etchings, and coloration of these old tomes—inevitably having impact on my own art, design work, and watchmaking over the years.
Possessions are much more than static objects. They can be vehicles for meaning, reflection, and purpose.

Something Bold + Modernist for #FlashbackFriday:
I was honored to have photographed the Berkeley Art Museum (BAM) one day before its permanent closing in 2015.
Designed by architect Mario Ciampi in 1970, this iconic #Brutalist building was a unique and historic landmark for more than 40 years.
