Dering Hall, November 22: "Designer to the Rescue: Richard Mishaan"
Using his signature sleight of hand, Manhattan designer Richard Mishaan transforms a tall and narrow townhouse living room into a serene and surprisingly spacious retreat. The challenge with the living room of this New York City townhouse was its proportions-- it is only 19 feet wide. And its very high ceilings could also have distorted the scale of the room. On top of that, we were asked to incorporate some beautiful furniture items that had belonged to the client's mother

Habitually Chic, May 1, 2017: "“Richard Mishaan’s Patterned Parlor Room"
“For the 2017 Kips Bay Decorator Show House, interior designer Richard Mishaan designed a room in which Lee Radziwill might feel at home. The ode to Renzo Mongiardino was also inspired by rooms that are collected over time like those in old family homes in Venice and Florence. Homes that are filled with silks and velvets and other treasures collected over years of travel. The highlight of the room is the printed custom wallpaper by Iksel Decorative Arts that was taken from

“Richard Mishaan’s exquisite Parlor Room on the ground floor was a dazzling home to culture, travel, and craftsmanship. The striking wall covering’s design dates back to Syria in the early 1600’s, when the Middle East was at its cultural apogee.
‘My inspiration is a room that was collected over time,’ said Mishaan. ‘Hand loomed silk brocades from Bevilacqua, hand printed Fortuny fabrics, animal prints in silk velvet and yards and yards of gimps, cords, and woven tape from
Interior Design Master Class, May 2, 2017: "Kips Bay Decorator Show House 2017"
“I realize I’m not the only design enthusiast that remembers Robert Denning & Vincent Fourcade’s maximalist approach to decoration. I loved the excess of their interiors and I was certainly not their only fan. And as you’ll see it’s the love of ‘more-is-more’ that pervades, in a very tasteful way, this year’s Kips Bay Decorator Show House. Beginning with Richard Mishaan’s salon—the ultimate nod to Italian legend Renzo Mongiardino—the house packs a punch.” #NewYorkInteriorD
Quintessence, April 28, 2017: "First Look 45th Kips Bay Decorator Show House"
“Richard Mishaan’s showstopping sitting room is an ode to travel, craftsmanship, and heritage. With a nod to the maximalist interiors of Renzo Mongiardino, Mishaan emulates the layered sophistication of artistic spaces like those in Venetian palaces that have been created over time, often including acquisitions from far flung locations around the globe. Eclectic pieces help tell the global story. Above, a rare Edoaurd Lievre mirror reveals the painter’s interest in Japanes
Doyle, May 2, 2017: "Kips Bay Decorator Show House"
“Richard Mishaan’s parlor room evokes a sophisticate Venetian salon with influences from the east. The wallcovering, which at first glance appears to be a silk textiles, is rather a printed wallpaper based on a Syrian hand-painted room from the early 17th century. Equally impressive is a large Serapi carpet from the late 19th century, woven in colors including deep blue and cream on a rust-red field.” #NewYorkInteriorDesign #KipsBay2017Showhouse #DoyleNotebook #RichardMisha
New York Times, April 26, 2017: "The 2017 Kips Bay Showhouse"
“In Richard Mishaan’s first-floor sitting room, the print on the custom wallpaper, by Iksel Decorative Arts, was taken from a 15th-century house in the Middle East. But much of the room was inspired by Turkish and Venetian palaces, and the layering that went on there. The pillow fabrics are from Luigi Bevilacqua. The rug is a 19th-century Serapi from F.J. Hakimian. And the federal-looking panther on the wall, a contemporary Audubon painting, is by Walton Ford.” #NewYorkIn
Traditional Home, May 1, 2017: “45th Annual Kips Bay Showhouse”
“Parlor by Richard Mishaan. Richard Mishaan’s parlor room is alive with pattern. A custom wall mural inspired by Topkapi Palace in Turkey and an antique Serapi rug from FJ Hakimian warm the space with rich color. Custom sofas and a pair of slipper chairs can accommodate a crowd.” #NewYorkInteriorDesign #TraditionalHome #KipsBay2017Showhouse #RichardMishaanInteriorDesign
