Q&A with ‘Young Traditionals’ Suysel & Anne of Tilton Fenwick (Part I of II)

Suysel dePedro Cunningham and Anne Maxwell Foster are the designing duo behind Tilton Fenwick, part of tradhome's "hot list" of 20 Young Traditional Designers to watch in 2011.


Known as the Curators of Chic, these ladies shared the many new and exciting things they're up to this Spring, including where they've recently moved.




GDG: What are some of the top Spring collections that you're most looking forward to seeing?
SC+AF: We are very excited for Christiane Lacroix’s new foray into the home design world with his Arles fabric line for Osborne & Little. We were in Paris in January for the Maison + Objet show and we stayed at Hotel du Petit Moulin, which he decorated in trademark over-the-top Lacroix style. We love his “Vuelta” pattern, which is definitely getting us excited for Spring!  The light-to-dark gradient floral pattern is the perfect melding of Lacroix eclecticism and Osborne & Little whimsy!


GDG: What are you particularly loving this Spring?
SC+AF: Spring air makes us think of outdoor fabrics and we love the subdued collection of outdoor fabric options at Rogers & Goffigon! They have the most beautiful solid colors and small, all-over patterns. We have also been using them for dining chairs and kitchen barstools because they are so chic ... and functionally great for easy cleaning!




GDG: Is there anything else you're excited about?
SC+AF: Our home boutique in the Flatiron District!! While our grand opening date is still to be determined, we’re aiming for this spring and simply can’t wait to open the doors for business and share what we’ve been working on! We are also beyond thrilled for the launch of new online magazine tradhome! We are honored to be a part of the inaugural issue and think the marriage between Traditional Home and Lonny will show a unique perspective in the design world!
