In 2001, Deborah Buck opened Buck House, a fine art and furniture gallery on Madison Avenue. Buck had already had a career in the art world, exhibiting professionally since the 80s. She had also worked for a subsidiary of Walt Disney productions designing and illustrating promotions for the retail display industry. Buck House was Deborah’s realization of a dream to create a design emporium that would fuse fine art and design. Her love of the applied arts combined with the fine arts created a unique destination for creatives of all walks. Acting as a salon, Buck House often hosted members of the art and design communities in social and academic gatherings. Buck House was not only a very successful business enterprise, but one that challenged the notions of art, design, and entrepreneurship. Buck House and The Gallery at Buck House was host to events such as exhibitions, lectures, book signings, and more, all of which were focused on the intersections of art and design. Buck House closed its bricks and mortar business in 2012 after 11 years on Madison Avenue. Buck House produced three books and countless pieces of press.
