New York Social Diary, April 27 2018: "Interview with Richard Mishaan"
As we said to designer Richard Mishaan at some point in our lengthy interview, "we thought we were going to be talking about if mid-century design is in or out and so forth..." but what we did talk about instead was how entrepreneurial he is. It does not distract from the fact that he is a confident designer of interiors, furniture, and textiles, not to mention his successful days in fashion as well as owning his own store for seventeen years, Homer, that sold the work of th
Sotheby's June-July 2015: "Staying in Context"
"Richard Mishaan has devoted a good portion of his life to collecting art, a passion he inherited from his mother and grandmother while growing up in Cartagena, Colombia. It's hardly a surprise that he is one of the most sought-after designers among art collectors, but not simply because he is a kindred spirit. What clients are drawn to is Mishaan's innate understanding of colour and composition and his unique ability to contextualise their collections by creating thoughtfu
Elle Decor September 2014: "Lofty Aspirations"
"Decorator Richard Mishaan transforms a classic artist's loft in SoHo into a stylish family home, without losing any of its bohemian spirit. Last year, after what began as a casual conversation with the designer Richard Mishaan, she finally got both wishes, without sacrificing the almost thrilling dimensions of the place or adding even the slightest element of claustrophobia, which was what Alexander feared most. The Mishaans had known Alexander and Waterstreet socially for y
Departures, Spring 2014: "Pop! Goes the Beach House"
"The Sagaponack getaway of Richard Mishaan makes a deceptive first impression. As one passes through the gates toward the circular drive on New York's Long Island, a shingled Queen Anne comes into view. It's a perfectly lovely home that does not stand out from others in the area. One could not be faulted for assuming that, based on its exterior, it's the sort of place that would be decorated in one of the expected, tasteful Hamptons motifs-- perhaps the nautical version, d

"If you ask Richard Mishaan what's new, don't expect him to answer 'not much.' Instead, you'll hear a litany of design projects he's involved with: a hotel in Cartagena (he was born and raised in Colombia), four apartments in Manhattan and homes in Sag Harborn and London. Then there are table-top lines he's designing for Lenox and Dansk. And he's forever researching and curating the roster of artisans he showcases at Homer, his Greenwich Village shop. Yep, Mishaan's a bu
The Wall Street Journal, August 14, 2014: "Designer Richard Mishaan's Twist on Hanging Pain
"Chock-a-block with paintings, the gallery wall is a look whose history stretches from 17th-century Paris salons to the hipster lofts of modern-day Brooklyn. But a fine line divides a design classic and a design cliche-- and reinvigorating the conceit can tax even the most innovative stylist. New York-based architect and designer Richard Mishaan cracked the code, however, with this maritime-themed installation in the master suite of his family's 16th-century vacation home i
Luxe Interiors + Design Winter 2015: "Luxe Style Makers: Design Dialogue"
"Just as haute couture sparks a look that transcends the fashion spectrum, Richard Mishaan and his team of six designers have achieved the same effect with interiors. The internationally acclaimed New York Designer has an intuitive talent for sourcing pedigreed antiques and exquisite art to create interiors he describes as 'modern yet referenced from a time gone by.' Mishaan has brought that sensibility to a wider audience last fall with his second book, 'Artfully Modern: I
