39 About Greg Natale Design Greg Natale founded his award-winning interior design company Greg Natale Design in 2001; one of Australia’s top design studios, Natale’s work examines the integration of design and decoration in residential, retail and commercial spaces as well as residential exterior design. Directing his passion for the principles, possibilities and heritage of design towards creating inspiring spaces that span from aweinspiring to intimate, Greg Natale’s style is a study in vibrant colours, contrasting graphic details, geometric patterns and rich textures. Through exploring the layering of textures, tightly editing a visual sense of balance as well as thoughtfully styled modern touches Greg Natale has hewn for himself a signature look. September 2015 will see the launch of Greg Natale’s first book, The Tailored Interior. With a forward by Jonathan Adler, this is a designlovers tome, demystifying the process of interior design by addressing the process holistically and in real terms, accompanied by breath taking photography of Natale’s projects by acclaimed photographer Anson Smart.
