What began 55 years ago with my late-husband, Richard McCooey, creating the 1789, Tombs and F. Scott's restaurants in Georgetown, and then selling to the great John Laytham and Clyde's Restaurant Group decades later, has evolved into an entire world where you can participate and hire us to design memorable interiors for your home, restaurant, hotel, club and resort. It is a privilege for me to be a part of this story and to "keep the party going", as Richard would say. -Karen McCooey
