Professional interior design

A visionary known for revolutionizing American design, Hunt changed the way Americans furnish and decorate their homes. In her first book, Hunt shares her nearly 40 years of design collections and her philosophy behind her modern, elegant designs.

Acclaimed for popularizing modernism with mainstream American homeowners, Hunt curated and created chic modern furniture that made high-end design accessible to audiences beyond New York and Los Angeles.

An influential figure on the design scene since the 1980s, Hunt is recognized for being the first to design gallerylike showrooms with a mix of high-end furnishings and art. Hunt’s signature design line, with its focus on craftsmanship, exacting proportions, and impeccable materials, is credited with elevating standards across the design world.

This momentous volume showcases Hunt’s nearly forty years of collections of furniture, lighting, and textiles, as well as her partnerships with the designers she championed, such as the French minimalist Christian Liaigre, whom she introduced to an American audience.

Also included are Hunt’s homes—from her Chicago apartment overlooking Lake Michigan to her never-before-published modernist masterpiece in Aspen—as well as her acclaimed renovation of The Little Nell boutique hotel in Aspen.

The first book on this tour de force, Holly Hunt is a lavish and comprehensive monograph on one of the most influential design figures of our time.

Reviews for Holly Hunt: Fearless in the World of Design

""It’s shocking that this is Holly Hunt’s publishing debut, considering she has been on the interior design scene for 40 years. This book—which tours readers through projects from Texas, mountain country, the Midwest, and more—is not just a study of the work Hunt has contributed to the field. It’s also a personal reflection on collecting, business administration, and branding, all of which reinforce a larger celebration of Hunt’s design success."" — ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST ""…looks back at 40 years of Hunt's accomplishments: the furniture, lighting, and textile collections she's created, the partnerships with the designers she's championed and introduced to American audiences, and the various places she has called home (including her never-before-published ""modernist masterpiece"" retreat in Aspen)."" — FLORIDA DESIGN MAGAZINE
