Collection 28
Added May 2011
The collectors built this house in 1995, some years after they had begun their glass collection, but before it had become as extensive as it is now. A few years later, their home and collection served as the guinea pig Collection #1, when ContempGlass.org began the Collections pages. Over the years, as the internet and Kindles reduced the need for books, many of the built-in bookshelves morphed into glass displays. A recent remodel completed (hopefully!!) the process, adding new lighting, replacing a seating area in the pool room with the gallery, and developing the sliding doors and hidden displays on the west wall.Click below to start your tour.

The house consists of a very large great room (including kitchen, dining room, and breakfast area) with a 21’ high cathedral ceiling on massive exposed trusses, and a peak skylight that extends the 40’ length of the room; a gallery/pool room; a large master suite; a guest bedroom and bath; and an office.
