Susannah Holmberg Creates a Minimalist Mountain Retreat in Utah for Hollywood A-Listers
“The eye has to travel,” the legendary fashion editor Diana Vreeland famously used to say, and when you see the interiors of designer Susannah Holmberg, you understand why. There’s a cosmopolitan complexity to Holmberg’s work that is as convivial as it is original. Rooms abound with shapes, patterns, textures and tones that delight the eye with diverting nods to far-flung lands and earlier eras while remaining very much rooted in the here and now.
Holmberg’s own wanderlust began early. The Baltimore native recalls a seminal family trip to Japan when she was seven. By her mid-20s, she had toured Morocco, trekked around India and sojourned in Nepal, France and Spain. “Whether it’s living in a mud hut or a five-star hotel, I love to absorb and soak it all in,” says the consummate explorer.
