Up the hill from the studio is our small guest cabin, which is generally used by friends and artists who come out to do projects with HDTS. Similar to my own home, the guest cabin was also an original homestead cabin — but this one was a more deluxe version. The renovations to the guest cabin are more minimal then those in my personal house — and I tried hard to keep the character of the original cabin as intact as possible.

Some of the furniture, like the Raugh Sofa, is an artwork. For several years I was working on a ideology called “Raugh” that embraced “human nature” and developed an corresponding aesthetic and series of designs. The sofa in the cabin was one version of the Raugh Furniture that I was working on until about 2010. The cabin also has a bunch of my mom’s gymkhana trophies from when she used to ride horseback and paintings by my grandmother who taught me to paint.
