WHAT REALLY MOTIVATES YOU?​

Motivation drives ambition, commerce, and choice. Why pick one job over another? Why buy one car over another? Why choose the red jacket over the black jacket when you are getting dressed in the morning, or watch a movie rather than read a book? Understanding why you do what you do and the choices you …

WHAT’S YOUR “STACK?”​

Two articles, one in the NY Times Magazine on Sunday, April 16, titled “Level Up” by John Herrman, and another in the Architects Newspaper Magazine, AN-Interiors, March-April issue, titled “House on a Stick” by Matthew Messner, got me thinking. (I know, this is dangerous). The “Level Up” article is about how the tech world talks …

ARE SCIENTISTS DESIGNERS?​

Are Scientists really Designers? If design is everywhere, let’s test this premise. At the start for Scientists: According to my brilliant PhD Biochemist husband, scientists start with an idea, a premise of some sort, then plan an experiment that will help discover what really happens, (OK, these are my layman’s words, so apologies to scientists everywhere). …

JIM STONE’S BOOK “5 EASY THESES”

The failure of Congress to bring a new healthcare bill to a successful vote reminded me to share some of the solutions proposed by one of our longest-term clients, James M. Stone, Chairman of the Plymouth Rock Corporation, in his book “5 Easy Theses”. Our economic future is assured if we follow his advice. I …

CREATE A MAGICAL INTERIOR WITH COVE LIGHTING​

Lighting is sometimes the last thing some people think about when imagining a new living space, but light is the visual foundation of a room. It’s the light that brings the room into our eyes, after all. Cove lighting is a particularly effective way to create a warm atmosphere that’s always at least a little …
