John
Saladino was born in Missouri and graduated from Notre Dame and the Yale School
of Art and Architecture. He opened his own design practice, Saladino Group,
Inc. in 1972. In 1986, John Saladino created his own furniture line with
designs that validate his philosophy of “mixing old with new.” His
furniture, which is based on simple geometric forms, is intended to appeal to
both the traditionalist as well as the modernist. Saladino has written
two books, Style by Saladino, which he reveals his inspiration behind
his design, and Villa, which focuses on the stone ruin in Southern
California that Saladino strenuously rebuilt into his dream house.
His
use of the color pink in the room below was featured in the July / August 2011
issue of Veranda. This interior is one of our favorites - enjoy!
