Back to the 2014 AD100 List

Though Suzanne Rheinstein is based in Los Angeles and works all over the world, Southern comfort is one of her decorative themes. “Clients come to me for subtle details, colors, and textures that speak of gracious living,” the native New Orleanian says. A master of welcoming yet disciplined spaces, Rheinstein notes that she prefers “fewer things and better things, thoughtfully chosen.” Her penchant is for antiques—“almost anything neoclassical,” she says, or, at the opposite end of the spectrum, “quirky Baroque or Victorian pieces.” Owner of the go-to L.A. home-decor emporium Hollyhock, Rheinstein has also reinterpreted classic motifs in two fabric collections for Lee Jofa and recently added a line of rugs for the firm. suzannerheinsteinom
