History
The gallery displayed and sold art and design objects, said to be among the “finest examples of design from the 19th century to the present.”[2]
In 2006, Buck House launched a second space nearby, called The Gallery at Buck House. This exhibition space hosted fine art exhibitions, book release parties, and events to benefit charitable organizations.[3]
In September 2009, Buck House closed its two locations in favor of a larger space on Madison Avenue, which combined both The Gallery at Buck House and Buck House under one roof. In a 2010 interview, Buck claimed that “the idea was to create a meeting place and a salon like those in 1920s Paris.” [4] In September 2012 Buck House closed its gallery, but continued on the internet.

Deborah Buck
Trained as a painter and set designer, Deborah's style is reflected in the grouping of objects at Buck House.[5] Buck originated the concept for 'Buck House Moments': a series of curated still-life photographs including antiques, fine art and floral arrangements. An eclectic assemblage of objects, or tableaux, highlight shared formal characteristics between objects and design a moment in the world of Buck House.[6] Exhibitions, revolving window displays, and tableaux developed at Buck House have inspired books such as Tableau and Fictional Females of Buck House and allow the public to explore, appreciate and interpret design in everyday life.
In 2013 she published The Windows of Buck House ; Fabulous, Fictional Females to great acclaim.[7]
