Farm recently hired Culp Design to design a
web site to promote and sell a new open space development,
developed
by the Bonview Corporation, in Middleborough, Massachusetts.
All of the houses are to be designed within one
period,
the Greek Revival and Federal Style, c.1800-1840.
The element this style brings forth is the crisp
design
of the classic elements such as pedimented entrances,
columned
porches and gable ends. Culp Design tried to capture
the flavor for this style in order to compliment
the development with the design of the site.

old and doing well.
- Culp Design played an integral part
in the design of a major new research study was unveiled
by the Nellie
Mae Education Foundation at a briefing in downtown
Boston on Thursday, June 29, 2006. The study finds most
New England states will suffer declines in the percentage
of young workers holding Bachelor’s degrees by
the year 2020 if current educational and demographic
trends continue. The report, New
England 2020: A Forecast of Educational Attainment And
Its Implications For The Workforce of New England States,
challenges today’s comfortable assumptions about
New England’s educational strengths and competitive
advantages.
