Richard Gillette was born and raised in New York. In 1974, he obtained his B.A. in Art History from the School of Visual Arts.
A painter by training and passion, Gillette has chosen to work on the most ubiquitous of canvasses: the 21st Century interior. Combining his admiration for the Arts with 35 years of design experience, Gillette creates unified living spaces from a palette of furnishings, designed elements, colors, and fine art.
