To mark the opening of the exhibition “Wendell Castle: Living” (on view through October 17), Untapped and the gallery Friedman Benda organized an intimate evening that explored the remarkable experience of personalized domestic spaces through the lens of the late craftsman’s legacy.

Design historian Glenn Adamson led guests through the exhibition, followed by a conversation, led by Untapped’s editor-in-chief, Tiffany Jow, about what “making home” means today. It featured Alison Castle, Wendell’s daughter and the exhibition’s curator, and interior designer Julie Hillman, who commissioned one of Wendell’s final pieces.

The program, broadcast live and archived on Montez Press Radio, featured three groups of speakers: Flavin Judd and Daniel Humm; Emily Adams Bode Aujla and Ben Bloomstein; and Alexis Sablone, Misha Kahn, and Mireia Luzárraga.
