Missouri-born and Notre Dame/Yale School of Art and Architecture educated, John Saladino is known as "the designer's designer", and is praised by Van Day Truex.

Saladino work:




"When Elsie de Wolfe invented the vocation of interior decorator in 1905, she informed her friends and potential clients of the fact by sending out cards engraved with her name and address, and a discreet announcement of her service". This is not 1905, consider this my calling card.
My brother gave me the book 'Saladino Style' for Christmas, and reading it was like discovering a little treasure.
ReplyDeleteI love him! I didn't know he was american though, I always assumed he was European -silly me!
ReplyDeleteThe last picture is of one my favorites of his. Veranda featured a room in this apt on their cover - one of the best magazine covers ever, in my opinion. Love the name of your blog! Jennifer S. over at Spaces gave me a heads up about your blog - looking forward to visiting more
