Tailored Interiors: The Bespoke Designs of Patrick Sutton

Interior designer Patrick Sutton’s highly anticipated second book, Tailored Interiors, explores his distinctive storytelling approach to crafting bespoke homes specially for his clients and their lives.

In this follow up to Storied Interiors (2018), interior designer Patrick Sutton presents seven beautiful and unique residences. Taking a deep dive into Sutton’s distinctive approach, acclaimed author Vicky Lowry tells the story of each home and how listening to his clients has inherently shaped the design.

The seven homes, located in Delaware, Maryland, Washington, D.C., and Wyoming, run the gamut from a crisply furnished, minimalist countryside retreat and a classic yet contemporary seaside estate, to a historic house given new life with striking furnishings and seductive colors, and a property in Jackson Hole with a pared-down aesthetic rather than the typical trappings of the American West. While Sutton’s objectives for every project might be similar—discovering the ‘story’ to help him craft a design that is influenced by the location, history, and his clients—he is adept at working in a variety of styles, with an approach that remains fluid and open-minded.

Each project in Tailored Interiors is illustrated with gorgeous photography and accompanied by a narrative about the client, their aspirations, and Sutton’s compassionate approach to the design. It is through vision and empathy that Sutton creates such rich, meaningful, and liveable interiors and helps his clients achieve their dreams.
