"Rick Livingston understands that style is meaningless without substance. While other designers whip up loud fashion statements, Livingston quietly goes about the business of making homes with real soul and character. He is a master at orchestrating colors, textures, forms and materials, yet he has no signature style or all-purpose design playbook. Instead, he tailors each project to reflect the unique spirit and aspirations of a particular client. Tired labels like "traditional" and "modern" don't apply to his work. Livingston celebrates the plurality of contemporary taste: he draws on the past to enrich the present and anticipate the future." -- Mayer Rus, Design Editor, House & Gardenhome history portfolio contact email
