Guy Clark

Palm Beach - Interior Designer and Real Estate Agent

Guy Clark’s favorite color, he says, is “Diamond.” There’s no word on whether that predilection has helped him in the interior design business he started more than 20 years ago—but it must have come in handy earlier in his work life; “I really love good jewelry!” he says. “As a youngster out of college I worked in the High Jewelry department at Cartier in NYC, and later was the Director of Important Jewelry for DeBeers.” He is recently back from three weeks of Chateau hopping in the South of France, and in Palm Beach can often be found at the Palm Beach Opera as well as the Symphony.

What do you do now for work? Tell us something about your work and career path.

I have had my own interior design firm for over 20 years, where I have worked for members of royal families, mobsters, and titans of industry. Now that I am a Florida Real Estate agent too, I can sell my clients’ homes when they get tired of them, and start the process all over again!
