Copy of 8. TrooRa The Connections Issue ‘20

Over the last five years, we’ve added over thirty new table lamp designs, fifty glazes, and hundreds of thousands of possible combinations of finishes between wood, metal, shade, and ceramic. Our intent is to create pieces that move people, that the viewer cannot dispute have been made with absolute care, and that will last for generations. Daks : Tell me a bit about your life now in the Catskills, and your day to day routine Peploe : We’re in the northwestern part of the Catskills, which is quiet and remarkably beautiful. I grew up on a farm so this feels much more familiar to me than New York City; it feels human-scale. There is, of course, this assumption that country life will be slower than city life, but I find that I rarely stop. I’ve been doing a modern renovation on an 1860's farmhouse with my partner Roger for the last five years, so that plays a big part in my day-to-day life, as we’re doing the work ourselves. I love architecture, interior design, and landscape, so this project enables me to be creative in all those fields in addition to Stone and Sawyer.
