Arden Riddle was a prolific studio craftsman who produced furniture for more than half a century. He is recognized for his high-quality wood materials, timeless and functional designs, and impeccable craftsmanship. Reference worked alongside the Arden Riddle Foundation to help preserve the designer’s legacy and bring his collection into the digital realm.
