look, i'm doing a good job, i think. >> you're doing a very good job. >> i also see why edmund bennettfirst steps into nakashima's studio in 1963. soon, george's workshop is humming with furniture for the carderock model. dozens of pieces, including lounge chairs, benches, and headboards. bennett commissions some items, like this lamp, for as little as $110. >> it quickly became a marriage made in heaven. they recognized in each other a tremendous appreciation for design. >> that marriage is memorialized in extensive correspondence between the two men about the carderock project. and nakashima personally checks out the installations, including this $350 wall case, when he visits the development. >> it was a bonus for mr. nakashima because it was a showplace for his furniture, as well as being a bonus for ed in terms of having people come see the community. >> and when the carderock model opens, it's clear that the design vision shared by bennett and nakashima is a winner. >> that first weekend, that generated over a thousand visits through the model home. so it was a huge success. >> b
