Architect Jeremy Corkern draws on his passions for art and antiques when drafting blueprints for his one-of-kind designs.
1 | Golden Age
I love art, especially the work of George Dunbar, as each piece is dramatic and multifaceted.
I’ve been a collector for 10 years, and my most recent acquisition is from the 1970s. It has a very unusual architectural quality to it and may just be my favorite to date.

Antique lanterns lend a sense of establishment to a home of any age. I love using these crusty fixtures in fresh, new ways and you’ll see them in many of my designs. There is something so cool and quirky about an overscale outdoor lantern hanging indoors above a dining table.

Culinary antiques fascinate me and the offerings at Lucullus are special and storied. Proprietor and interior designer, Patrick Dunne, is an encyclopedia on the subject and his book “The Epicurean Collector” is a longtime favorite for gifting and inspiration.

4 | Hand to Heart
Mark Gagnon’s papier-mâché vessels are sculptural and captivating. Their shape and scale make them feel modern and ancient all at once. My mother was a paper artist, so I appreciate the time and talent it takes to create something so beautifully complex from such a simple medium.
