Space and light. That's what you get in abundance when staying at Ray's place. I organized two weeks of fieldwork there, and my colleagues were blown away. It's funny how much work gets done when immersed in great design.

Since returning to 'regular' life I've become sad. I miss glass walls that merge the outdoors with inside. I miss fire pits and living room dance offs. And water beam bathtubs. And hula hoops too. The list goes on and on.

Bonus: Ray and his caretaker were really warm and accommodating. They provided provisions to get us started and were always available for whatever we needed. Looking for a reason to return..
