The late Interior Design legend Mario Buatta passed away a few months away. Buatta was known as the Prince of Chintz for his quintessential use of classic elements such as the traditional print and his maximalist body of work. In his last project, a glamorous duplex located in Manhattan overlooking the East River, the legendary designer left his tasteful mark in every one of the design choices, comfortable, plump seating, sumptuous drapery with dressmaker details, a glorious selection of color, touches of chinoiserie fantasy, and, yes, occasional bursts of flowered chintz.
