Interior design creates movement and reflects thoughtfulness. It is the one profession that the art and discovery of each element reflects not only upon the lives and tastes of the client, but the expertise of the designer themselves.
This episode will introduce you to one of the most talented souls Anne has met: Rosemarie Padovano.
As Elsie de Wolf once said, “I am going to make everything around me beautiful. That will be my life.” It is as if Elsie was writing that specifically for Rosemarie. With a master's degree in sculpture and a bachelor's from the renowned Parsons School of Design, Rosemarie draws on her studies while leveraging her strong creative compass to create memorable and meaningful spaces.
Her brand, Artemisia, is shared with her husband Marcello Marvelli. Marcello is an art historian, curator and antique dealer. Their intention is to create uncomplicated interiors that feel original and collected over time. Artemisia's expression expands beyond unique design services, it is a destination for curated finds for your home.
Featured in Town and Country, New England Home, Vogue and Elle Decor, Artemisia has captured the attention of interior designers and hearts of discerning enthusiasts. Rosemarie’s story is one that will draw you in. Her portfolio of experiences, innate talents and warm personality is the reason success loves to follow her.
In this episode Anne and Rosemarie discuss:
