Riding on the Edge
By Blase Mnich, Interactive Brand Writer
Any real motorist will tell you that a vehicle is an extension of the driver. The way one drives says a lot about a person. Applying this motorsport maxim to the Red Bull Indy GP I watched on Sunday, I can tell you one thing I learned about MotoGP riders – they’re crazy. That, by the way, is a compliment. CONTINUE READING
Fathers, Sons and the Mid-Summer Classic
By Matt Orlando, Brand Creative Writer
Some can say what they will about Major League Baseball’s All-Star Game being a glorified exhibition, but to me, the Home Run Derby and the game itself will always be classic.

Kuppersmith Project Update: Week 11
By Lou Ann Schafer, Sr. Marketing Manager
We thought we would keep you posted on the progress of the Kuppersmith Project that we featured last month. Good news! It’s garage time!
Gladiator® GarageWorks is excited to be working with Danny Lipford on the Kuppersmith Project. No home is complete without a garage and this one is no exception—except the old garage wasn’t functional so the team built a new garage to go with the renovation. Since a garage is usually a space used by the whole family, we created a practical garage for Kuppersmith.
Our recommendations for the Kuppersmith project were 5 key zones. CONTINUE READING
One House, One Amazing Project
By Matt Orlando, Brand Creative Writer
Gladiator® GarageWorks has joined forces with home improvement expert Danny Lipford for one of his biggest renovations ever, the Kuppersmith Project.
What’s a Kuppersmith?
The project is named after the family who lived in the home for nearly 50 years. It was built in 1926 in Mobile, AL and needless to say this American Tudor style home is in desperate need of some TLC.
Danny and his team are tearing everything out, down to the studs, to rewire and insulate the home. The goal is to transform this classic into a modern, energy efficient and low maintenance home. Danny wants to show homeowners the proper way to approach an entire home renovation.
The idea for Gladiator GarageWorks came from real consumers who expressed a need to somehow organize their garage clutter. Armed with this consumer knowledge and seeing the garage as an untapped room within the home, Whirlpool Corporation developed and launched the Gladiator Garageworks brand.
