Carl House would have had no beginning without the help of designer Tom Webb's meticulous eye.  While respecting the historic integrity of the home, Tom specialized in recreating the look and feel of the original house by finding old materials and fashioning woodwork to emulate the period of the original house.  For more information about the 'Carl House journey,' read BB's chapter in her latest book, Rising to the Top, co-authored by Jim Rohn and Jack Canfield.
