"Captured on the pages of these two volumes is what Mario Buatta called the scrapbook of his life. Here are pieces that traveled with him from as early as his first apartment in the early 1960s, such as his beloved 'Floral Bouquet' living room curtains whose length he continued to augment as he moved, to objects that belong to his design idols and inspirations Nancy Lancaster and Mrs. Henry 'Sister' Parish II. He spent over fifty years creating this collection which, until now, has been hidden away and never fully comprehended in its impressive scale and quality." - quoted from introduction of Volume I.
