Show Notes
Born in Paris and raised by his grandparents, interior designer and architect Robert Couturier is a living embodiment of a more formal, genteel era. He came to New York in the seventies, and after working for Adam Tihany, established his own firm and began working on projects that would land him on the covers of magazines and take him around the world. In this episode of the podcast, he shares a personal recollection of his young life, then discusses why he likes to have friends as clients, why he never got into product licensing, and whether interior design as a profession will live on. This episode is sponsored by Moore & Giles and the This Old House podcast.
