He is in my estimation the best decorator<br />of his generation~ the work is sophisticated but never pompous, glamorous without any cheap theatrics. In other words, to be trusted completely. Long may he flourish.Toby Worthingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05887066048372484464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1788956260467786745.post-7758863673567860702010-02-27T19:57:47.030-05:002010-02-27T19:57:47.030-05:00Marisa,

I really do think that Markham is one of the most talented designers today. Not that Mark Hampton can be replaced, but I think that if you were to name a designer whose talents and knowledge are in the same league as Hampton's, it would be Markham. I'm a big fan :)The Peak of Chichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02811933436075145329noreply@blogger.com
