The first authoritative assessment of Mario Buatta by a protegee of
the decorator. Never-before-seen archival material is culled to
present the design master as someone who remains impactful in today
s world of maximalist interiors. This book presents the design
tricks and decorative life of Mario Buatta (1935 2018), one of
America s most famous interior decorators. Drawing upon Buatta s
vast archives and revealing the foundations of his work, which
include hundreds of presentation boards, more than eighty
scrapbooks chronicling his career, and correspondence with clients
and such design notables as John Fowler and Sister Parish, Anatomy
of a Decorator illuminates the designer s work with a focus on
influences, process, and evolution. His very last projects, not
included in Rizzoli s comprehensive book on the decorator in 2013,
are evaluated and provide readers a masterclass in decorating a la
Buatta. Ribbons, needlepoint, fine English and American antiques,
floral chintzes, blue-and-white porcelains, lacquerware,
botanicals, vibrant color combinations, and whimsy abound. Chapters
include a close look at the important figures who guided his
trajectory, including Nancy Lancaster, Rose Cumming, Keith Irvine,
and Albert Hadley; an assessment of how the designer catapulted
from Staten Island without a college degree to become a household
name; and a breakdown of Buatta s design vocabulary and how-tos.
This book is an essential addition to the libraries of design
aficionados.
