Designer and Artist Tom Deacon Goes Back to the Drawing Board to Re-Renovate His Home and Studio

Tom Deacon’s life, like his work, is a mix of old and new, indoors and out. An architect by training, he became renowned as a furniture designer, leading Canadian manufacturer Keilhauer to its first mass-produced chair, the Tom, an innovation in high-tech plastic, and then back into upholstered fame with his Danforth chair, for a time the official seat in the White House Situation Room.
