Idea Currents
Louis C. Tiffany viewed himself as a "creator facilitator." Similar to Elon Musk or Thomas Edison, he simply made big acts of creativity possible through his vision and organizational skills.
In an effort to connect artist cooperation and the new style of craftsmanship that was arising in the 1890s, Louis established Tiffany Glass and Decorating Company (an interior decorating firm). The only way he saw to bridge industries was to consolidate craftsmen under one organization. Directing these artists from all different techniques, he created a current for the best ideas to flow.
The Tiffany name reaped the benefits of this coordination and a new standard of quality was set. He recognized this was the best way to achieve his vision to bring beauty to homes.
