Anjali Pollack founded her firm in 2004. Born in Bombay, India, Anjali moved to New York to study Interior Design at FIT and never left! Inspired by the melting pot culture of the two metropolis’ she calls home and constant travels with her family, her style is glamorous and global. She loves working together as part of a team and believes that the collaboration of creative, smart minds is the force behind every project. She sees her role akin to that of an interpreter- absorbing the client’s cues and translating those uniquely into each home.
A lover of the arts, she enjoys visiting museums and galleries, and watching live performance. Always looking for the next find she loves antique stores, off the beaten track places and markets all over the world. Obsessed with tabletop, accessories, flowers, and styling, she loves to entertain at home with family and friends.
Deeply committed to improving Education and Mental Health, Anjali co-founded the SCA Charitable Foundation with her husband, Michael Pollack in 2009. A die-hard New Yorker, she lives on the Upper West Side with her husband and two sons.
Anjali’s Favorites from Scalamandré
Q&A with the Designer
When designing a room, what are your three favorite categories of fabrics currently in our showroom?
Our current Scalamandré obsessions are:
- A botanical print in a cotton poplin such as the Central Park. We love the lightweight breathability of this fabric and this print is one that we have to stop ourselves from using over and over again.
- The performance velvets offered by Scalamandré are incredible. The selection is huge both in terms of sheen and also in the range of colors offered. One that we really love is the Lark Fontaine Lux fabric – it is a super glamorous velvet and literally gleams once upholstered!
- We are also really into soft textured fabrics. Once again, we find Scalamandré to be our go to showroom for these. One of our favorites is the Aldeco Prive Melange Velvet, it is luxuriously soft but very elevated looking.
