"I want to create the illusion\u2014and the reality\u2014of permanence.\" These are not Peter Marino's words; they belong to the late Renzo Mongiardino, one of his biggest influences. But Marino's work certainly embodies their wisdom. Like the Italian illusionist, Marino believes in the seamless integration of architecture and interiors and also happens to be an aesthetic polymath. Operating out of New York City with a 140-person team, Marino balances top-end private, commercial, and cultural projects, and has commissioned major works from contemporary artists such as Paola Pivi, Idris Khan, and Richard Deacon to star in his stunning retail spaces. petermarinoarchitect.com\n\nMeet the other architects and designers on the 2012 AD100 list."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
