COUPAR's Marketing and PR client EJA Lighting Design recently celebrated its 25th year of illuminating interiors, exteriors, and fine art. Lighting was in Founding Principal Eric Johnson's destiny. With the magical given name Merlin, his father invented, developed, and manufactured an optical lighting framing projector for fine art in 1969.

Congratulations to COUPAR client QuarryHouse on their 30th anniversary! The Marin County-based master stone masons work with elite builders, architects, and interior designers, creating timeless private estates and prestigious public works. Ed and Missy Westbrook co-founded QuarryHouse, taking the company name from the location of their home in San Anselmo on an old rock quarry.

Congratulations to COUPAR client QuarryHouse for winning the prestigious Julia Morgan Awards in Craftmanship & Artisanship for 2022.
