At Home Memphis & Mid South Features Splinter Creek

Sonia Thompson

At Home Memphis & Mid South magazine features the Boathouse at Splinter Creek in its July 2021 issue. Author Terri Glazer writes, "The mid-century modern home is a stunning example of a concept central to the architectural guidelines of Splinter Creek—that all structures in the community 'live lightly on the land.'"

The article also highlights much of the homeowners artwork and furnishings, especially several tables by George Nakashima, an innovator in furniture design in the 20th century and a father of the American craft movement, and a spectacular chandelier designed in the 1960s by Swedish glass artist Eric Hoglund.
