“A house is like a person. First you notice the overall size and scale. Then the exterior and, finally, the personality therein,” says architect Peter Marino. “If a design is schizophrenic and there’s a disconnect between the architecture and the interior, it’s usually unpleasant. If it’s harmonious, it’s a very pleasant place to be.” For Marino, architecture and interior design have always been inseparable, and he is renowned for integrating the two. “My approach to a building, to an interior, to a piece of furniture, to a water glass, is always the same,” he explains. “How does a human feel in relation to it? Does it function? Is it beautiful?” He recently applied these principles to the Oriental Gallery of the Zwinger Museum in Dresden, Germany, as well as to luxury-brand retail stores and residences around the globe. -AD 100: Peter Marino profile
