Raised in Beverly Hills with a film director father, Madeline Stuart made her way into design working for up-and-coming screenwriters and actors. While the movies have played an enormous part in Stuart’s career, her work has the depth of a novel—carefully studied, richly textured, and endlessly layered. Her firm has been featured on Elle Decor’s A-List and the AD100, won numerous awards, and her work is regularly featured in top publications around the world.
On this episode of the podcast, she speaks with host Dennis Scully about what she calls "scavenger decorating," the highs and lows of working with celebrities, and how she learned to walk away from bad clients—as quickly as possible.
