Thank you for this bananas-level brilliant interview with Antonio! Fascinating to read how Le Corbusier and Jeanneret influenced 18 East and about Antonio's ethical manufacturing practices.

I feel silly for mentioning it, but I reckon Costantino Nivola collaborated with Eero Saarinen throughout the construction of two colleges at Yale: Ezra Stiles and Morse. (I mean, they're def birds of a feather, were built simultaneously, and connect... but they are *technically* [cringes, rolls eyes while typing comment] two separate colleges.) So, yeah, Nivola's cast stone sculptures are incorporated into and around Stiles and Morse.

Very excited about this PJ content on BBSP and to witness the slow evolution into BBSP as a top-tier home decor news outlet.
