Nicole Hollis: Artistry of Home Keynote

Celebrated for her elegant and understated interiors and her fusing of artisanal elements into a contemporary approach to spaces, Nicole Hollis will join SFMOMA’s Associate Curator of Architecture and Design Joseph Becker for a conversation on the role of art and craft in interior design, coinciding with her second monograph from Rizzoli entitled Artistry of Home, releasing on September 10th.

Focusing on the profound effect that art, craft, and color can play in any interior, the talk will present a series of Hollis’s masterful new residential projects, in which the curation of art, objects, and custom furnishings are key to the character of the spaces.
Spanning homes in New York, California, and Hawaii, each interior reveals a new lesson in the creative and playful juxtaposition of artistic elements. In an elegant townhouse in San Francisco, a striking collection of contemporary paintings contrasts color and dynamism against luxuriously minimal furnishings. A loft in Tribeca pairs the organic forms of naturalistic chandeliers over sleek, modern furniture. And in a dreamlike beach house in Hawaii, custom woodwork brings into the space elements of the sublime nature outside.
