No Sheetrock was harmed in the making of this photograph….

By Ken Gutmaker

“No Sheetrock was harmed in the making of this photograph” – well only the ceilings…

In this cabinetmakers home in Eugene Oregon all of the interior walls are wood. This creates such warmth and subtle beauty.All of the doors are mounted flush as to appear seamless. This home feels like a well crafted ship. A pleasure to photograph.
