Nothing was ordinary for Ruth Richmond, whose Richmond Homes built more than 12,000 single-family homes in Southwest Florida from the 1950s-1970s. She used unusual door hardware, plumbing and lighting fixtures that were a sign of the times. Today her custom-designed Lucite pulls are very sought after and hard to come by.
