Gary McBournie has perfected the art of creating interior spaces with an impeccable eye for color.

By Gary McBournie

With a penchant for painting and an appreciation for the well-designed home since he was a child, Gary McBournie has perfected the art of creating interior spaces with an impeccable eye for color. He established his design firm in Boston in 1993 and has since created warm, elegant, and timeless classic American homes, always with a twist on tradition. Finely attuned to his environment, McBournie develops each interior with a color palette that matches its surrounding exterior, splashing cool and restful hues for a cottage in New England, shades of lime and papaya in the tropics, and warm sunset tones for a ski house in Montana. Featuring personal photographs and the inspirations behind his color choices, Living Color: A Designer Works Magic With Traditional Interiors is a must-have for anyone looking to be tickled pink by gorgeous, twenty-first-century renditions of the comfortably chic American home.

Gary McBournie established the design firm Gary McBournie, Inc. in 1993, which now has offices in Boston and Nantucket, Massachusetts, and Palm Beach, Florida. His interiors have been featured in major publications, such as House Beautiful and Traditional Home. In 2009, he was inducted into the New England Design Hall of Fame.
