I believe balance, proportion, scale and form must be paired with quality materials, and excellent construction. I aspire to the highest aesthetic ideals and make sure that all my custom designs are always well built and beautifully finished and tailored.

Delphine Krakoff grew up in Paris, where she attended business school. Though her education was in business, it was her own interest in design that landed her jobs at the luxury houses of Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior in Paris, and later Coach and Ralph Lauren in New York. Her venture into the world of interior design came by chance, when a friend offered her the opportunity to decorate his classic Hamptons beach house. Her innate sense of style and natural French flair made the transition into the trade seamless, and led to the creation of her own interior design company in 2000.

A passionate collector herself for many years, with her talented husband Reed, she has access to the best dealers, galleries and auctions houses around the world, and can act as a curator to build a comprehensive collection of decorative arts and design.

If Tony Ingrao felt that designing a 20,000-squarefoot English castle–inspired country estate in Connecticut was a daunting first solo project, he didn’t show it.

Early in his career, the Rhode Island School of Design alumnus moved to France and dealt 18th-century English and French furniture in Paris.

In addition, their personal passion for contemporary art is key. Their projects attain a level of sophistication that develops from the juxtaposition of a well-edited contemporary art and furniture collection with an eclectic combination of 18th century through mid 20th century antiques.

From the object to the landscape, inside out, the creative process of Studio Arthur Casas is intimately connected to a horizontal scale, where the main concern is the dialogue in the conception of programs that can be as diverse as a chair or an entire neighborhood, influenced by a spirit both modernist and contemporary that is Brazilian but also cosmopolitan.
