Maxwell Gillingham-Ryan, Apartment Therapy
Eight years ago, Maxwell Gillingham-Ryan was known as the “apartment therapist,” traveling by scooter to his clients’ homes to help them make their spaces beautiful, organized and healthy. Today, Apartment Therapy, the website he started as part of his design services, helps more than 12 million unique readers per month accomplish the same goal for themselves. Soft-spoken and charismatic, Maxwell brings his readers and clients a nurturing aura and a well-honed philosophy of homemaking with origins in his childhood.
