  • Mikasa & Company created a china pattern inspired by "the graphic window pattern" of Edward Durell Stone's original design.
  • In March 2007, artist Emily Katrencik created an homage to Edward Durell Stone's lost design at the EXIT ART gallery in Manhattan. The artist formed a sculpture of hung lollipops containing flakes of marble from Stone's original facade.

Famous quotes containing the word miscellany:

    Happy will that house be in which the relations are formed from character; after the highest, and not after the lowest order; the house in which character marries, and not confusion and a miscellany of unavowable motives.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The secret of culture is to learn, that a few great points steadily reappear, alike in the poverty of the obscurest farm, and in the miscellany of metropolitan life, and that these few are alone to be regarded,—the escape from all false ties; courage to be what we are; and love what is simple and beautiful; independence and cheerful relation, these are the essentials,—these, and the wish to serve,—to add somewhat to the well-being of men.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
