The House that Highlighter Built

If you’ve ever used a Touche Eclat highlighter pen from YSL, then you already know Terry de Gunzburg. She created the iconic pen while she was creative director of Yves Saint Laurent Beauté. In 2001, she founded her own beauty company By Terry that is poised to become the next global beauty brand. The London home she shares with her scientist husband and family, looks like the home of a creative person. She had help decorating from long time friend Jacques Grange. It’s featured in the February 2014 issue of British Vogue as well as a previous issue of AD. It’s worth checking out just for the Francis Bacon paintings alone.

    This is real decorating by someone who really knows what he is doing. And a great client!

    Yes, a bevy of phenomenal Bacons. The interiors of the house are classic, timeless and full of life–love at first sight. Tnks. Mary

    OMG! Putting aside her accumulation of art, her collection and groupings of eclectic furniture are beyond exceptional. This would be what I would have IF I had the money, connections, and resources. But I don’t.
