Reviews
"Hunt takes us on a journey through a remarkable career, sharing the insights, challenges and triumphs that have shaped her path." — NEW CITY NEWS
"It’s shocking that this is Holly Hunt’s publishing debut, considering she has been on the interior design scene for 40 years. This book—which tours readers through projects from Texas, mountain country, the Midwest, and more—is not just a study of the work Hunt has contributed to the field. It’s also a personal reflection on collecting, business administration, and branding, all of which reinforce a larger celebration of Hunt’s design success." — ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST
"…looks back at 40 years of Hunt's accomplishments: the furniture, lighting, and textile collections she's created, the partnerships with the designers she's championed and introduced to American audiences, and the various places she has called home (including her never-before-published "modernist masterpiece" retreat in Aspen)." — FLORIDA DESIGN MAGAZINE
"American interior design owes a lot to Holly Hunt, the Texas-born maverick who built a multimillion-dollar company in Chicago and introduced homeowners across the country to the modernist aesthetic through exquisitely decorated gallery-like showrooms (she was the first to do this, by the way). Forty years into her career, Rizzoli is publishing her first monograph, which will include highlights from her furniture, textile, and lighting collections, snapshots of her collaborations with designers, like Christian Liaigre, as well as photos of her homes, including her Chicago apartment and her never-before-published house in Aspen." — TOWN & COUNTRY
"Hunt shares her nearly 40 years of design collections and her philosophy behind her modern, elegant creations." — HAMPTONS COTTAGES & GARDENS
"...showcases her nearly 40 years of collections and partnerships—including Christian Liaigre, whom she introduced to an American audience—and her personal residences in Chicago and Aspen. " — KANSAS CITY MAGAZINE
"Holly Hunt: Fearless in the World of Design showcases the design icon’s nearly forty years of collections of furniture, lighting, and textiles, as well as her partnerships with the designers she championed, such as the French minimalist Christian Liaigre, whom she introduced to an American audience. Acclaimed for popularizing modernism with mainstream American homeowners, Hunt curated and created chic modern furniture that made high-end design accessible to audiences beyond New York and Los Angeles. An influential figure on the design scene since the 1980s, she is recognized for being the first to design gallerylike showrooms with a mix of high-end furnishings and art. Her signature design line, with its focus on craftsmanship, exacting proportions, and impeccable materials, is credited with elevating standards across the design world." — CURATED TEXAN
