 CORBIN-NORTON HOUSE Oak Bluffs, Martha's Vineyard, USA 2004
It's a home with a storied history. 1891. Philip Corbin, turn-of-the-century hardware entrepreneur, builds the centerpiece of a Victorian seashore park on Martha's Vineyard — both summer retreat and a showcase for his firm's most richly decorated and innovative hardware. 1991. Purchased by Peter Norton, founder and CEO of Norton Utilities software company. In the 100 years between, the house was gradually stripped of her original Queen Anne beauty — all ornament, detail, materials, line and rich color lost.
