Beautiful whimsy is one for the (young) ages

The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City opened the 81^st Street Studio children’s play and education space last fall. Mark Richey Woodworking had the amazing pleasure of carrying out KOKO Architecture and Design’s swirling, tactile and whimsical vision for the space, located in The Met’s Ruth and Harold D.
