- Like the boy Peter, we often struggle with the idea of growing up. Something about the innocence and freedom of childhood resonates as we slowly notice ourselves age. For most, all we have of childhood are faded memories that dimly spark when we sit with our children, or cross paths with some object that ties us to that long forgotten time. Fortunately, the wisdom of age bestows reflection. It empowers the reinvention and exploration of those objects which keep us young.STUDIO Poetic Blather DESIGNERS Brandt Brinkerhoff, Katherine Walker
