Rose Tarlow is an interior designer, a furniture and textile designer, and an author based in Los Angeles, California. She is known for having designed elegant residences for a small number of notable clients. She is the author of Private House, a memoir of her interior design activities, first published in 2001. In 2004, the magazine editor Marian McEvoy wrote that Tarlow, along with Albert Hadley, Jacques Grange, Michael Taylor (designer)|Michael Taylor, Renzo Mongiardino, and John Stefanidis, were "six design superstars who have had an enormous impact on me and practically everyone else in the design world."[1]
Interior design
Tarlow is known for creating rooms with highly refined wood, plaster and stone finishes, furnished with antiques (typically English, French, and East Asian), and infused with a personal blend of classicism, minimalism, and romanticism. In her own house in Bel Air, she clad her dining room floor with reclaimed stone from France, installed wide wood floor boards made from 17th-Century French oak in her living room, and added ceiling beams throughout, taken from an 11th-Century church in Kent, England. Like much of her work, the house has a romantic character: in 1994, the writer Susan Orlean opined that "the place had the rugged, sunny, otherworldly ambience of a California mission."[2] In 2001, the architecture critic Julie I. Iovine wrote of Tarlow's passion for creating "rooms of haunting luxury packed with enough rarities and idiosyncratic touches to upstage a Zeffirelli opera set."[3]
