Alan Tanksley
Interior Designer, Alan Tanksley placed a Sam Glankoff's print-painting in one of his most memorable interiors, and shares that he currently has "two magnificent works hanging in my office."
In 2013, Tanksley was invited by One Kings Lane to curate a 72 Hour Tastemaker Tag Sale. Tanksley chose eight artworks from The Sam Glankoff Estate to be printed as Museum Quality Archival Ink Jet Reproductions for the sale. Thus began the official soft-launch of The Sam Glankoff SGW Collection Editions.
Renowned as an expert colorist, Alan Tanksley creates shimmering palettes that make a space both exciting and relaxing, and he is widely considered to be one of America’s leading practitioners of residential design, detailed space planning, and custom furniture and fixture design.
Mr. Tanksley’s work has been widely seen in such publications as Architectural Digest, Interior Design, House & Garden, Art & Antiques and Metropolitan Home in addition to Elle Decor.
He is especially proud of the much-acclaimed rooms he created for the Kips Bay Showhouse as well as the Hampton Designer Showhouse which featured the original Glankoff Print-Painting, below.
His day-to-day collaborations with leading architects such as Maya Lin, James Dayton, and Harry Elson give the firm the unusual ability to draw on expert talents to implement a wide range of architectural renovations for each project that it undertakes.
