“In many ways, the Edward Field story is a story of American design.“ - Jeff Lincoln
In our film, The Fifth Wall, gallerist and designer Jeff Lincoln reflects on Edward Fields legacy and his role in shaping interior design with his bold artistic vision.
While directing the film I really enjoyed Jeff’s personal interest in this project. Jeff, a third generation interior designer, has a long connection with the Fields family that started back in his childhood with his fathers partnership with Edward Fields.

Behind the scenes: Building a documentary film team
I have always loved competitive sports. I particularly love baseball (Go Cubs.) I appreciate that it takes the entire team to win.
Making a documentary is exactly the same. You need so many different team members to come to the table and bring their whole heart and their complete dedication for the team to win.
A huge congratulations and my gratitude and appreciation to @ryanearlparker@nlk8920@angela_lambiase@vporges@arianamassouh@jqwanders@polastrijuliana@bethanyhopf@cdbiopicts@michellelitos1

Making The Fifth Wall Documentary:
I often say that during a difficult climb, for it to count, you have to leave some blood on the mountain.
Making a movie is hard work full of challenges! Long hours, travel, hauling gear, endless editing, researching, budget negotiations and meetings. Did I mention the myriad of meetings.
But it is these challenges, sacrifices really, that make it so satisfying. Sometimes after a particularly challenging day it would be the simplest moment of finding a sweet daddy parking spot in New York that would save the day and lift our spirit.
“If people knew how hard I worked to get mastery, it wouldn’t seem so wonderful at all.” – Michelangelo
