Ondine has been a successful set decorator, working on major motion pictures
and television shows in New York for most of her professional life, including
the hit television series "Sex and the City," where she
... more served on a small team
that continually pushed the limits of high-end interior design. When the series
ended in 2004, she opened her own boutique design studio in SoHo. Four years
later, Ondine Karady Design has already developed an impressive client list that
includes major celebrities, Hollywood directors and Washington opinion makers.
In addition, she has also developed a robust catalog of custom-made furniture,
wallpaper and ceramics. It is Ondine's dream to build her business into a design
powerhouse specializing in glamorous homes, hotels and restaurants, with product
lines in major retail stores. An avid world traveler, she ultimately intends to
design and manufacture furniture with artisans from villages around the world
while supporting developing regions in the process. Ondine has a gift for
transforming even the most sterile spaces into elegant, comfortable and livable,
works of art. She began her career in set decorating after graduating from
Barnard College of Columbia University. Among other major projects, her credits
include the films "Requiem for a Dream" and "25th Hour." Ondine splits her time
between New York, Montauk, N.Y., and Washington, D.C., where her husband Jim
Rutenberg is a political correspondent for the New York Times.
