First and Next: Mentors & Proteges

During a presentation by John Saladino this spring, I saw many design similarities with my former boss, Michael Smith, a former Saladino protege.  This made me think about other well known designers and their mentors.

  5. Thanks for sharing info and images...

    I'm a Saladino fan, when it comes to elegant interiors he's head and shoulders above the others. Of course, he must have had really rich clients to pull those really fabulous interiors.

  6. Hi Ann! Thanks for your comment. Saladino talent is really in blending the interiors and architecture seemlessly with most likely endless funds.

  9. Fantastic! I thought it might have been but I wasn't sure. I will properly introduce myself next time, when I don't have my hands full of succulents and I'm not rushing to finish something.
