Grace Jeffers

Grace Jeffers' love affair with materials began at nine years old, when the other students used paper doilies to decorate their Valentine’s Day project, she shingled hers in laminate. She is a design historian who has infused the discipline with an understanding of both material science and the process of design practice. In addition to writing, she consults to manufacturers of building materials to help them communicate values about their products. Go to www.gracejeffers.com to learn more.
