}}Mario Buatta (October 20, 1935 – October 15, 2018) was an American interior decorator.[1] Born in Livingston, West Brighton, Staten Island, New York in 1935, he attended Curtis High School, Cooper Union and Parsons School of Design. He designed interiors for clients including; Mariah Carey, Henry Ford II, Malcolm Forbes, Barbara Walters, Nelson Doubleday, Mr. and Mrs. S.I. Newhouse, Charlotte Ford, and Billy Joel.[2] He oversaw the interior of the Blair House in Washington, D.C., and was known as the "Prince of Chintz" based partially on his use of lush floral prints.[3][4][5] Buatta owned the William H. Mason house in Thompson Hill, Connecticut, a historic home that has fallen into disrepair. There is some protest over what has been termed "demolition by neglect" surrounding the home.[6][7] Buatta's most extensive work was Carolands, an historic 92-room chateau located in the town of Hillsborough, California located just south of San Francisco. Buatta died in New York City on October 15, 2018, at the age of 82.[8][9] Further reading
