With a desire to entertain both the eye and the individual, the projects of world-class US architect David Rockwell are united by their lively design narratives.
The son of a vaudeville dancer and a choreographer, Rockwell’s unusual upbringing has led to a fascination with the theatrical and an eccentricity which permeates his creations. With projects ranging from fine hotels and restaurants to Broadway musicals and product design, Rockwell’s approach combines powerful design and craftsmanship, while always aiming to create the possibility for pleasure.
Rockwell’s rug collection is based on graphic and textural explorations derived from his diverse projects; the designs are at the same time sophisticated and playful.
