Testimonial:

Dear Michael:

I would like the thank Pegasus Custom Hardwood and you personally for your participation in the Stubbs Idea House. During the process of contacting potential Show House sponsors, my curiosity was piques by the overwhelming enthusiasm of your representative here in Houston. I had to agree that the small sample he had of the beautiful, hand honed plank floor was very impressive. There is, however, no way to convey the majesty of the workmanship in the hardwood floor and it's effect until you see it in your home and have the opportunity to live with it as it assumes a persona of it's own, with warmth and character that grows on you like a cherished antique passed down through the generations. The texture of each hand honed, signed plank seemed to create it's own story, reflect it's own light, and combine to create a movement almost as fluid and mysterious as that of water in a stream.

During the events, receptions and open house at the Idea House I have had the opportunity to hear from those who have visited the house and commented on the floor. Most felt it to be an antique that must have been transferred from an old school house, library, or historical home.
I don't think that most people have encountered quality of this magnitude, and they were astounded to learn the availability of this kind of excellence in a world that relied upon machines and mass production that create environments that tend toward the institutional or sterile. The floor you created was one of the most appreciated contributions to the house.

Thank you for your participation in the Stubbs Idea House and for allowing me to experience beauty, history, and excellence from an era past expressed in the beauty of your creation today.

Warm regards,

Bill Stubbs
