Greg Natale (born 1974) [1] is an Australian interior designer, and the founder of Greg Natale Design.
Early life and education
Natale was born and raised in Sydney, Australia, [2] to Italian immigrants who arrived in Australia in the 1950s. [3] Natale took a three-year course in interior design at the Enmore Design Centre at TAFE NSW – Sydney Institute, studied visual arts at Sydney College of the Arts, and architecture at the University of Technology, Sydney. [4] [5]
Career
From 1996 to 2001, Natale worked for three different architectural design firms: Garth Barnett Designers, HBO+EMTB, and SJB. [6] In 2001, he launched Greg Natale Design. [7] This was around the end of the minimalism movement, [7] [8] and Natale chose to pursue a more luxurious look than had previously been in style. [5] His first major project was the 2002 design of the Gonano Apartment, with a decorative, repeat pattern coordinated on walls, blinds, bed linens and art. [3]
Natale's first book, The Tailored Interior, was published by Hardie Grant in November 2014, with photography by Anson Smart and a foreword by Jonathan Adler. [6] [9] The book offers insights and lessons on interior design, including Natale's philosophies and approach to paint colour, type of paints, patterns, proportion, cohesion and layering, [5] [7] [10] showcasing 18 spaces Natale has created. [9] Architectural Digest named the book as part of its 21 Best Books by Designers and Architects of 2015.[ citation needed]
In September 2018 Natale's second book, The Patterned Interior, was published by Rizzoli New York.
