New York Magazine's new "Design" issue counts Francis Fleetwood among New York's living design innovators. He "built mansion-size 'cottages' for new Hamptons money, and helped turn shingle-siding and the pursuit of 'authentic' grandeir into national housing trends," writes David Colman. Master weaver Jack Lenor Larsen is also featured in the issue. His "lengendarily quirky Hamptons house," the LongHouse Reserve in East Hampton, with its open-to-the-public gardens, contains many textiles, embroideries and crewelwork he has collected from around the world, as well as the designs they inspired.
