Katie Ridder — Italian Luxury Design Selection | 101domus
Prepared exclusively for
Katie Ridder
A short selection of Italian ateliers, chosen for the color, pattern and craft that run through your books and your rooms — from New York town houses to Twin Farms Resort.
"More Rooms" (Vendome Press, 2020) — your third monograph, after "Rooms" and "A House in the Country" — is what shaped this selection: three books that keep returning to pattern, saturated color and antiques restaged in new houses.

Three ateliers, chosen for you
Out of the 100+ Italian manufacturers in the 101domus network
Porcelain & objects · Campania
Villari
Hand-decorated porcelain, crystal and mirrors finished in 24k gold, with a hospitality track record including the Four Seasons Florence.
Why: matches your taste for richly decorated accent pieces, and your own hospitality work at Twin Farms Resort.
Tier: Ultra-Luxury
Lighting · Tuscany
Mechini
Florentine atelier since 1970, hand-forging chandeliers in wrought iron finished with Bohemian crystal or Murano glass.
Why: a statement chandelier as room-defining object, in the same spirit as the layered, color-forward rooms in your books.
Tier: Ultra-Luxury
Furniture · Veneto
Atelier Molon
Over 50 years of handmade furniture across Classic, Eclectic (Art Déco) and Contemporary lines, in fine woods and gold leaf, with its own hotel contract division.
Why: a classic-with-a-twist furniture language that suits both your town and country projects, plus hospitality-ready production.
Tier: Luxury
The business case, for this exact selection
Sourcing Villari, Mechini and Atelier Molon directly means three separate factory relationships for one project: three quotes, three production timelines to track, three shipments, three customs clearances, three invoices in EUR to reconcile. 101domus consolidates all of it into one coordinated project.
3 → 1
ateliers coordinated through a single point of contact instead of three separate vendor relationships
1
consolidated shipment and customs entry to New York, instead of three independent deliveries
DDP
landed cost (duties + delivery) known upfront, before production starts — no customs surprises
