About Santarella
Chris Santarella's passion for design was instilled at an early age--from sleeping on his uncle's Adrian Pearsall Gondola sofa to visiting his father's office, designed by Florence Knoll, in the fabled Black Rock building. Later, as an auction house photographer, he documented the resurgence of mid-century modern--an experience that has underscored his zeal for the vintage market
