"My work is very diverse; it has no signature stamp," says Scott Snyder. "I draw out of my clients what they need, and then I weave what they have with what we'll buy."

For a longtime client's New York City apartment, the designer combined Art Déco pieces with modern artworks in the living room (see Architectural Digest , March 2004).

In Palm Beach, Snyder highlighted the Venetian-style elements of a town house in a 1927 building by architect Marion Sims Wyeth with formal yet comfortable pieces.

Set in another Wyeth structure, Snyder's own residence in Palm Beach features a dining room that he calls a "folly," with circa 1770 engravings ( AD , September 2004).

Snyder transformed a client's contemporary Palm Beach apartment with traditional details and mahogany furniture, as in the master sitting room ( AD , November 2001).
