Roycroft Arts & Crafts era furniture was once built here of necessity to furnish rooms for the Inn, offices, and shops.

Leather bookbinding later grew to produce designs by the finest craftsmen of the day under the direction of Louis Kinder and later Frederick Kranz and George ScheideMantel.

Now houses a pottery studio, a series of antique shops, art gallery and frame shop.

The entire Roycroft campus has the highest possible historic designation: National Historic Landmark.
