Madeline Stuart Author

Madeline Stuart is an AD 100 interior and architectural designer and creator of the Madeline StuartCollection, a line of custom designed furniture. Madeline Stuart is a leading member of the Los Angeles design community whose wide-ranging clientele comes from the entertainment industry and the world of business and finance. Equally at ease designing a 1920 s Hollywood hacienda, a Fifth Avenue Manhattan apartment or a Rocky Mountain retreat, Stuart stresses, above all else, the fundamental marriage of integrity and beauty. Her projects reflect a collaborative relationship between architecture and furniture, function and form, client and designer. She grew up in Beverly Hills, the daughter of a producer/director father and decorator mother whose work was favored by film stars. Her father directed Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (in which Madeline had a cameo) and credited her with its creation: My father made Willy Wonka because I begged him to do it. I had one line. Since 1994, Madeline Stuart has restored and remodeled houses designed by architectural icons such as Gerard Colcord, Cedric Gibbons, Sylvanus Marston, and Paul Williams. In 1998 she launched her own furniture lighting, and accessories line, available at showrooms across the country. Her work has been featured in numerous publications.
