What Made Designer Billy Baldwin Great

Billy Baldwin had a way of making any space comfortable and sleek. I especially liked the way he used screens to set-off a space and bring architecture into a room. He was also a master at "small spaces" and could make even a tiny apartment extremely elegant.

Billy Baldwin was a decorator's decorator and he had not only a marvelous personal style but he had a comfortable sleek, transitional style of decorating; long before the word transitional was used. I salute this legend with my own take on his comfortable way of making a house a home. In this room I have used Sunbrella fabrics Frank, Trax and Origami; all the upholstery is from Miles Talbott Joe Ruggiero Collection.
