Diamond Baratta is one of the hottest design teams around and they are regularly featured in Architectural Digest, the New York Times, House and Garden and Veranda magazines. Dubbed "Decorating's Dynamic Duo" by House Beautiful, William Diamond and Anthony Baratta are known for enlarged scale and genius color interpretation. Theirs is a bold, vivid, vivacious style that is not for the faintheartedt. They are also known for their gold-medal perfection and have developed a stable of craftspeople, fabric weavers, rug braiders, needlepoint artists and metal artisans who can meet their stringent standards. These high standards have guaranteed them innumerable happy repeat clients. They are also beloved for their fearless playfulness. They often build their designs around motifs: cowboy-print fabrics and other western icons in the Rockies; lighthouses and other nautical symbols on the seacoast or giant Parcheesi and chess-board patterns on rugs, pillows, and upholstery. Chapters in the book are broken down by theme, such as Young Moderns, Folk Art, Bold Themes, Modern Pastels and Traditional Elegance. With 275 full-color photographs, each spread is a visual feast that will keep pages turning.
