棲居美學6 房屋參觀 | 鳳凰城一座擁有 100 年曆史的普韋布洛古城

Hey, Homeworthy, I'm Scott. Welcome to my house in Phoenix, Arizona. You're watching Homeworthy, where we believe every home has a story. Hi, my name is Scott Burdick, and I am an interior design professional in Phoenix, Arizona. I actually did not know that I was going to be in the interior design business. It is oddly a family business that I didn't realize was in my family. I grew up in Arizona, and my mom was an interior designer in the business that I now co-own. So she started working at Wiseman & Gale as the name of the firm when I was in high school and grew up through the business. And we bought the business together along with two other partners in the early 2000s. I moved back from Europe, where I was working in management consulting. And had a major career shift and started working in design. So I grew up in Arizona, not very far from here, in a historic adobe. This also is a historic adobe. This one is older. It's originally dated 1926, and it was the architect of record is an architect named H.H. Green who did a lot of really cool adobes during that period of time. In that day, this was way out in the middle of nowhere. And there was an arroyo that kind of runs along the side of the property that comes down from Paestua Peak. The name of the house is Rancho Arroyo. There's a couple other cool names to the house. It's called Lucille's Blessing is a nickname for the house. And also God's Acre. At one point, it was a 20-acre ranchero. And over the years, the property was sold off and they gated in one acre. And the city of Phoenix has kind of grown up around it. So we're now in central Phoenix in this acre of property. Welcome into my living room. There's two houses on this property. Each house is a one-bedroom house. This is the living room and main space of the main house. And in here is where I spend most of my time. And I would welcome you in and let me show you a few cool things. I would start probably by showing you this painting hanging here. There are two paintings in this room that are by an artist named Bill Tull. And Bill Tull is a big influence in my career and my aesthetic. He was an adobe home builder and architect and painted mostly as a hobby. And he would leave a painting with every house he did. I'm still friends with the family. And I purchased two paintings from the family. This one depicts cottonwoods. And it is called My Life Will Be Good. And it's my birth year, 1965. And it was given to me by the family. And it's a very important piece to me. Above it is some Scottish antlers. I'm definitely not a hunter. These are antique antlers that I purchased in London from a dealer when I lived in London years ago. And the weathervane arrow is something that is from my mom. And then up here is a painting by an artist that paints in Venice, California. That piece is aluminum and oil mosaicked together. And the artist's name is Charles Arnoldi. It was given to me by a dear friend. And also a wonderful designer here in Arizona named Jim Harris who passed away just recently. So I treasure that. The seating area is... These three pieces have spent a lot of time together over the years. And they've been recovered many times. The sofa is a Edward Wormley sofa for Dunbar. It's vintage. And the chairs are vintage Donga. And they're covered in a corduroy from a London company called Howe. And incredibly comfortable, incredibly durable. And sort of blend into everything. The piece that I use as a coffee table is a Korean grain chest. And then this is kind of... I like to keep it pretty simple because this is a Delft piece that I have owned for a while. It's way more interesting on the back where you really see the age of it. And all the mends that it survived and been mended back together for probably 250 years. I think it's kind of cool. Over here is an early Italian antique that I bought from a North Carolina favorite vendor and friend named Randall Teisinger. And it holds a lot of my favorite things. I would point this out to you. This is kind of tucked up here. This is called a saguaro boot. And it's just an organic object. Birds make nests in saguaros. And this is the scar that the saguaro makes to protect itself. That kind of surrounded nest. And people from Arizona typically know what a boot is. But if you're not from Arizona, you probably wouldn't. So that's that up here. The basket is a Japanese woven basket. The foot is my mom's. And it is a remnant of a Santo. And the pair of small paintings are by a Jerome artist named Damien Gomes. And then these are kind of cool. These cubes are resin. And they're created by an Arizona artist named Mamie Kratz. And Mamie does all sorts of incredibly wonderful organic Arizona pieces. Usually using resin. And then this one. This is kind of cool, too. I love this. I bought this from Joel Chen a few years ago in Los Angeles. It's just a rock. And it's antique Chinese. And it was a stamp press rock. And it just sits right there next to that Chinese vase. The chairs are. These are one of the first antiques I ever bought. I have four of them. And they are from a French manufacturer named Charles Dudoit. And I'm going to pronounce that name wrong. Sorry. But I love them. They're incredibly uncomfortable. And they give a little bit of a contemporary edge to what is otherwise usually a pretty traditional style that I have. The dining room and the living room are separated by a beam. So again, we're talking 1926. My English friends giggle that that is not very old. But it's really old for Arizona. And I think that Arizona was a state in 1912. And so it was just after Arizona became a state. It has a bunch of Hopi and Native American drawings on it. That we're not exactly sure when they were done. But we're thinking probably somewhere along the way in the 40s or 50s. That was added. And then on this wall is just a weird collection of things I love. It's another Bill Tull painting. As he got older, he moved into abstraction. And they're abstractions of usually adobe houses. This one's dated 1990. And was from his daughter Jennifer that I got that. The African piece up there is a Sanufo buffalo head. And it is from an old family friend of ours, Ira Levy. And who's no longer with us. And I always feel like it's a nice way to remember people. Is collecting pieces from their collections. And mixing them together and creating something that's your own. This little piece is from an Arizona artist named Ruth Waddell. And it is a landscape of the petrified forest in northern Arizona. Ruth and her husband John were sort of Arizona treasure artists. And John Waddell is best known for his bronzes of dancing figures. You see them in a lot of public art around the city. The mask is a copper. It's a bat mask. And it's Mexican. And they use them in sort of indigenous Mexican ceremonies and dances. I have a pair of these crazy benches. That I bought from a dealer on Pimlico Road in London. Maybe 30 years ago. That have been everything from sort of little benches to coffee tables. And right now they're just, right now it's just covering a really ugly electrical outlet. And then in the dining room, the table is, it's a mid-century French industrial table. It's pear wood. It actually raises, and it could be like a counter height if you wanted it to be. I bought it in San Francisco from March, which is a wonderful store in San Francisco. And the benches and the chair are upholstered in a Bergamo fabric. That's no longer around. This was a fabric that was big maybe 15 years ago. And we used it a lot. And the bench design was actually an antique that we had bought. And I blew up the antiques actually in one of my old business partners' houses. And we blew up the antique. And it's part of Weisman and Gill's furniture line. The chair is Michael Taylor. And then on the table, I would point out, this is a real treasure. We call him my llama, but he's probably an alpaca. And it's by an artist named Dane Burr. And Dane was big in the 70s and 80s. And he did terracotta sort of farm animals and zoo animals and things like that. And he was based in Asheville, North Carolina. The egg here is a piece of quartz with really big inclusions in it. And then it was molded into the shape of an egg. And that was something I got from Holler and Saunders based in Nogales, Arizona. They have beautiful things like that. I would be in big trouble if I didn't point this guy out. This is a bronze piece that was done by my second mother and a dear friend named Patsy Lowry. Her art name is Skyline. And she's very influenced by the Hopi culture. And it's a church that has people in it. And I use it as sort of a, sits on top of books, weights them down. Another thing I like to collect are French battery acid containers. That's what these are. And then the mirror is by Mike Diaz who is based in Mexico City. And is something that our, Mike Diaz is an incredibly talented furniture maker and artist. And our company represents him in Scottsdale. This chandelier is a Noguchi vintage chandelier. It replaced, there was a really, really old and not very attractive rusty chandelier here. That was probably original. And I replaced it with this. I probably broke some design rules by doing that. But I like this better. Welcome to the kitchen. This is a tiny house, tiny kitchen. It's a small galley kitchen. As we come in to this, there is a tuning bell. Some people think it's a tuning bell. Some people think it's a crutch. But it's a bronze, very vertical piece that is by an artist named Mary Bates Neubauer who is a professor at ASU. And she does wonderful bronze pieces. I like the unexpected spot that it is. It's hung and you can see it from all different rooms. And it's a bit of a surprise. So here on my kitchen counter, this pair of ceramics are from John Widmore. It's a Los Angeles-based ceramic artist. This one's an antique Japanese. And then the painting, which I love the little choreography of this, is by Sam Scott. Sam Scott is an amazing New Mexico-based artist that does big abstractions of gardens. And I feel like this is probably a fragment, but it was a small piece that I fell in love with and I've had for a long time. Mixes with everything. Over here, we probably should point out this is a pair of antique English decoupage birds. So almost like kind of grade school crafts where it is craft paper and trees and then the birds are decoupaged into the trees. And this is another thing that I bought from Randall Tisinger many years ago in North Carolina. This is a Mexican tin silver box that is kind of my junk drawer. You can see I have some COVID tests in there. Some glassware by Japanese artists that I love. And then this is a favorite piece. This is just a found object. It was given to me by my friend Todd Nicky. We don't really know what it is or where it's from. He got it from a flea market in Los Angeles and he gave it to me for my 50th birthday. It's kind of an appropriate 50th birthday party because we think it is a cockfighting trophy. And on the back here, it says Villagra Senior Center, L.A., California and curated by somebody. The coin in here is a Hawaiian King Kamehameha coin And then it has this hood that lifts up that I'm not going to lift up because it will lose our rated PG, our rated G because it's a little graphic. And then this leads us out to my little kitchen patio. Out here on this patio is mostly for pots and it's a transition out into the garden. This is a bell that is from Palo Solari and we love the sound of it. It's a very Arizona thing and most people that have been in Arizona for a long time have at least one Palo Solari bell. They're bronze bells that I've got them kind of scattered around the property. And then my plants. I love my plants. We've got a couple of cantera pieces here that are Mexican. These are something I collect there. They're called milaria jars or honey pots and they're terracotta and they were made in the early 20th century for making honey, like the industrial making of honey in Mexico. And then the bench is just a super sturdy primitive bench that can handle all this weight. And my red crocks are when I'm working in the garden. For me, when I first came to this house, I was with my realtor and we were very much looky-looing it. We thought we were coming to see a falling-down adobe that had a lot of history to it. And as the other realtor was punching in the code to the gate and the gate was opening, he said, this home was renovated in 2012 by John Douglas, who is an architect I'm very aware of, and Greg Hunt, who is our favorite builder construction guy in town. And so suddenly, I was seeing a historic adobe that had been lovingly renovated and my whole view of the house completely changed. The woman that had lived here before had passed away and it was in some disrepair, but I knew that the bones were good and I knew that I could see myself living here. So I'll quickly take you through the powder room. This powder room is probably, I would call it pre-renovation, but there's some fun things in here. I collect oil paintings and around here over the toilet is a collection of Spanish artists. It's a 19th-century oil paintings and they all have these crazy noses. So it kind of gives you something interesting to look at when you're in the powder room and maybe get a giggle. As we exit the powder room, I want to point out in some of these little adobes, having good mirrors is important and this one is placed on the wall outside of the powder room in a small hallway and it reflects the light of the powder room and it kind of opens up the space and throughout the house, there's some great floor-to-ceiling mirrors that reflect light and make the rooms feel bigger. So again, this house has, it's two one-bedroom houses, and so this is sort of the bedroom in the main house. In here is a queen-size bed made out of a CNC Milano orange fabric. I'd actually made this to float in a different house. It happily worked great in this room. I actually don't mind a bed that floats in a room. I know a lot of people want to be grounded against a wall and even sometimes facing in a certain direction. Doesn't bother me at all. My one bedside stand where I put my glasses and my television clicker and water is, this is actually one of the first things I ever owned, and it's a Native American smoking stand that I bought many, many years ago from a dealer in New York City called America Hurrah, and it's definitely one of my treasures. I love it. It has a little door that opens up on the front, and then over this way is a small desk that I don't use as a desk. Again, it's displaying objects and things that I like. The desk is an antique Mexican pine, Sabino pine desk, something that I inherited from my mother. This is a favorite object as well. This is a small statuist paper mache. I bought this in Los Angeles from Ray Azoulay from Obsolete, and the artist's name is Agnes Bayonne. It's just a small sculpture of a boy in a hoodie. And then back up here is a couple of older paintings that I've had for a long time that seem to live together well. This small pen-and-ink drawing is a picture of an Indian sitting on a mesa cliff looking out, and that was a gift from an art dealer friend of mine named John Reyes, and it is a Buren piece, and then the horse and rider is an oil from a Santa Fe artist named Louis Reback. And then over here, this Swedish piece is tucked into this corner, has an oil paint or a watercolor of a couple of Arizona birds that my grandmother did, Jo Joba. And she was, I have a love of the desert and love of rocks and plants that is definitely something that I inherited from my grandmother Jo Joba. And then if you come around this way, this is a painting that I purchased from, so our founder of our company, Ann Gale, passed away last year, and I bought this from her family. It's a Serbian 19th century oil painting of a family, and again, it's all about the surprise and that there would be all these figures staring at you at night while you're sleeping doesn't bother me at all, but it might freak other people out. In the afternoon, it lights up with sunlight and you really find these beautiful details in this painting, and I love thinking about all of the different characters and who they were and which ones are brothers and sisters, which ones are married to each other and what the story was there. So that's basically it. And this is chest of drawers that is a Spanish chest of drawers with a Chinese lamp, and this is a little piece from another Arizona artist named Nessa Gale, and an old hat box that holds my, not a hat box, it's a wig box that was, holds all my belts and cuplinks and things like that. From here, we can go into the primary bathroom, and in here is a tub that I have never been in, and a relatively small bathroom. It gets more interesting as you come down this way. There is a stacking Japanese tonsu that I use for storing my towels and things like that. There's a wonderful John Waddell painting on this wall that I love looking at. These are kind of fun. This is an Arizona artist named Dick Seeger, and I have a collection of these and they were gifted to me by Ann Gale, the founder of our company, over,gosh, maybe a 10-year period, and I seem to get one every year. She knew I loved them and makes it way easier to buy me a gift knowing that she's going to get me every year, and eventually she ran out of them, and so I've got the full collection now. The piece over behind them is an antique church sign that I found from a dealer, and I actually Googled the church. It says up here, it says community, temple, house, church of something, something, and it has the various times and days of the events happening in the church, which I think is kind of fun. This is an African piece that there is a wonderful African dealer in Arizona named Susoko, and he's a longtime vendor and client of ours, and he actually donated this piece to our Desert Botanical Garden for an auction, and then I bought it out of the auction. An incredibly generous family, and most of my African pieces, which I love, have come from Susoko over the years. So over this, the tub is, we call him Uncle John, and there was an interesting memory When I look at him, I was at an estate sale from kind of a wild hoarder's house, and the lady that was leading the estate sale, when I pulled that out, she's like, oh,that's my Uncle John, and she told me that I could have him for free if I promised never to sell him, and so Uncle John is right there. So off of the master bedroom, welcome into my dressing room. In here is my sickness of collecting colognes that are tucked on a tray, an old English wood tray and an antique dog painting. I also collect small boxes. These are pill boxes, and we spend a lot of time at market buying antiques for clients, and when I, I tend to try and buy one every time I am in that situation. I display all of my Bolo ties up here, and the, this idea, I actually stole from my friend Todd Nicky from his dressing room. He had all of his jeans lined up on a wall, and I said, I gotta do that. I love not having to, to fish and dig for which pair of jeans I'm gonna wear, which is basically my daily uniform. So, this house is cool, but maybe cooler are the gardens. It is, it's a one-acre property. It was originally a 20-acre property in 1926, and it's right in the middle of central Phoenix, and you really feel buried in the desert here. It was originally owned by a guy named Hubert Earle, and Hubert Earle was a famous botanist, and he was the head of the botanical garden for a long time. He put some crazy plants on this property that are worth showing you. So come on out to the garden. There are so many things that inspire me as we walk around and look at the things in my house. Every object is a trip down memory lane, and certainly, in my work, I am surrounded by good design all the time, and I am presented with a lot of options, and my house very much changes, and I bring things from work that I love, and then I get tired of them, and I take them back, or a client sees them, and I end up selling them. That is with some of the things in my house. A lot of the things in my house are, I have deep personal connections to, and I couldn't possibly let go of. But my big inspirations, gosh, my friend Todd Nicky, who is one of my lifelong friends who is an interior designer in Los Angeles, my mom, Patty Burdick, certainly has been a huge influence on my aesthetic, and Gail, who is the founder of our company, 100% influenced me, and I have a lot of her heirlooms around the house. There is an Adobe Home Builder that was really prolific in the 80s, 90s in Phoenix named Bill Tull. I have a few of his paintings. He was a big influence in my young life in terms of what my personal aesthetic is. So where we are right now is the small covered patio that's off my front door, and this is an amazing spot to have breakfast. Again, I have a weird collection of pots that are antiques. Some are contemporary Belgium. There's a wonderful company called Atelier Vierkant, and I mix those in with Mexican antiques and European antiques. But this is where I will eat breakfast if the weather is nice. So we're in the garden right now, and it is a little rare that you would have a property that has so many mature plants outside of our desert botanical garden. I'm going to show you some cool ones. I think there's 21 armed saguaros on this property as well as a whole bunch of other interesting specimen plants. You can see where there's a bird's nest, and I think a bird just left. They're leaving their nests as we're disturbing them. We're sort of taking a little path down towards a small stream and I'm just going to point out some of the cool cactus. This is a totem that's super mature. I'm guessing it's 50 years old. Again, many of the really important plants that were put here were during a period of time when Hubert Earle and his wife Lucy lived on the property. And then as you walk a little further this way, there's an amazing saguaro cactus that's, again, growing up through an ironwood tree that has an owl's nest in it. And the owl's nest is kind of near my bedroom window and it will... It's a very cool sound to hear this hooting owl every once in a while. So moving through the garden, there is a shade structure here that is really old and my understanding is that it was a wedding gift from Hubert to his wife Lucy and he asked her what she wanted for her wedding and she says, I have everything I could possibly want and so he built her this shade structure. And the shade cover on it is actually ocotillo spines that are tied together to create the shade structure. And it leads you down to a newer piece of the garden that was added by the previous owner before me. Her name was Virginia Cave and Virginia created a stream that runs through about half the property. She was an amazing gardener and the stream brings wildlife and flowers and life to the desert here. There you'll see all sorts of grasses and green things. I've lived here three and a half years and I have yet to put a flower or a plant in this area. It completely takes care of itself and propagates itself. These are called palo blancos and palo blancos are a variety of desert tree that get these paper-like bark pieces and a dappled shade and there's maybe 20 of them that run here between the main house and the casita. I'm going to walk into the casita now. In 2012, John Douglas and Greg Hunt did a historic renovation and added square footage to the house. In keeping in line with historic renovations, they did anything that is new is 2012 is stacked adobe brick and anything that's old that's historically protected is the smooth adobe. At the front here, there's a covered patio space that is a potting shed that I hardly sit there, but it's a good place to protect my cactuses and it is kind of fun. When I have a lot of big parties here in Christmas, et cetera, it's where we put the bar and so it forces everybody to go into the potting shed. My favorite thing about this house is it's completely different than anybody else's and it is a big surprise to people as they experience it. It is not what you think exists in central Phoenix and the other thing is the story of this house is about a historic adobe, but it's also very much about the garden and the Sonoran Desert and the house is buried in really beautiful Sonoran Desert, which is also on the National Historic Register. So it's a rare thing to have a house on the register, but also the Sonoran Desert and landscaping are listed on the Historic Register as well. So the second house on this property is an 800-square-foot casita. It's a one-bedroom casita and this is the bedroom of that. This is the addition part. The ceilings are taller here. I think we've probably got, I don't know, 8 or 9-foot ceilings here. It gets very low here as we move into the old part. There's a small kitchen and then a very charming living room that has a wonderful old fireplace and small closet, small bathroom, but use this. I lived out here briefly and nowadays my friends have caught on and they are booking it when the weather's nice and are staying here. And it's wonderful having guests stay with you where they're not really in your house. They get to come and go as they please and not feel like they're interrupting your routine. And so they now come for 2 weeks or a month and it's fantastic. The painting over between the lamps is a find that I've maybe had for a few years, but it's by an artist named Richard Tumsuden who is a Brooklyn abstract expressionist artist. And it definitely gives a really bold statement that you can see from far away. A couple of the cool things in here, there are some antique sawfish saws that I've hung on the wall here. There's a great old cow mask that is offset onto the fireplace over here. And then the cabinet here that hides the TV is a special piece. This is probably way too important in antique to have in a guest house, but it works so well in here. But it hides the TV and we call him Caesar, and Caesar is also a Mexican dancing mask. It's a body mask and it would have fit over the body. If you take this down, it's hollow in the center. And kids would have worn this around their waist during dancing ceremonies in Mexican indigenous cultures. This was the chandelier. It was wired as a chandelier in the adobe that I grew up in. And so it is a family heirloom that I love. This little grouping is something that I purchased just recently. We were installing an amazing house in Jackson, Wyoming, and we pulled these from a shop up there thinking that they were going to go into the house up there and it didn't work there, and I knew exactly where they were going to go when they didn't work. Another example of having an antique mirror strategically placed dramatically opens up this very small space and reflects light reflects furniture and makes a big impact in this small space. So leaving the kitchen, there's this kind of transition space, a little vestibule that we have an antique French clock in here. This is a clock that was in my living room growing up. It's my mom's. My mom and dad live in a much smaller place now, and all of the kids are inheriting some really great stuff. So I managed to sneak this one by my brother and sister, and it's here now. And then if you go this way, this enters into my game room. This room was originally the master bedroom of the house, and it is, for me, my ping-pong room. I'm a little obsessed with ping-pong. And so that's here. I think that the most interesting thing in here is probably this painting on the wall on this side. This is a Mexican painting that depicts the Revolutionary War. And when I bought this from Holland Saunders in Nogales, it was practically free because it had a huge cut that was through the middle of it. It was in really bad shape. And little did he know that I was deep down a YouTube rabbit hole called Baumgardner Restorations, where they do YouTube stories about restoring paintings. So I sent this to him in Chicago, and it came back looking like this, totally back together and reinforced, and now you can love it. It's called Forced Perspective because the horses are so in the foreground, and then there's all sorts of action and things to look at in the details. This over here is an antique English piece that's hung on the wall. Again, something from my family. It stores my antique train set that every once in a while, I'll break this out and put it together, and it'll be usually going around my dining room sometimes around my ping-pong table, but I think it's fun to put together every once in a while and work into a design and makes a cool sound. But it's a train set from the 40s. And then if you head this way out of this room, there's another little transition. Here I have hung a Garo Andresian piece. He was a New Mexican artist that was a printmaker, and that is something, I've always loved his work, and one day I'm like, I need to own one. And a friend of mine that's a dealer in Santa Fe sold that to me. I think that a house that has a feeling and a personality and a soul is,it's a little bit hard to describe, but it's very, but you know it when you're in it. And houses with history, houses that are filled with personality and filled with personal objects collected over time give a house a soul. The word home means to me is where your family is and where your roots are. And it can change over time. I for sure think of Arizona as my home. It's where I grew up and it's where my family is. I've spent a lot of time in my life. I lived in New York for 10 years and I very much think of New York as a home as well. I don't get to be there in my day to day, but when I come through the tunnel in New York City, I feel home. By Homeworthy, it was great showing you around my 1926 Adobe home in Phoenix, Arizona, but it is time for you to adios. Thanks for watching.
