WHO: Robert Stilin


Robert Stilin is known for effortlessly combining crisp, clean architecture with custom upholstery, antique and vintage furniture and modern and contemporary art to create casually elegant homes that are warm, comfortable and very livable.
His collaboration with Ina Garten on House Beautiful’s 2008 Kitchen of the Year embodied casual sophistication.  His thoughtful touches throughout the space extended to the tabletop, where place cards made of cookies were decorated to echo the Barefoot Contessa’s signature graphics. 
Maybe someday I’ll dress a table that epitomizes easy elegance…  Until then, I’ll stick to baking the Barefoot Contessa’s incredible “Beatty’s Chocolate Cake”!
