One of Architectural Digest's top 100 designers, Stubbs shares his knowledge and philosophy in 13, half-hour episodes, presented nationally by WLIW New York.

Moment of Luxury invites viewers to join Stubbs as he travels to exotic locales in search of design inspiration—from English palaces to Newport and Palm Beach mansions; from French flea markets to New York City showrooms; from Mexican haciendas to Incan ruins. Along his journey, Stubbs visits with some of the world's top authorities on design including President and featured designer of Mark Hampton, LLC. Alexa Hampton, Antiques Roadshow expert Eric Knowles, and Architectural Digest Editor-in-Chief Paige Rense.

Complementing the series will be an accompanying Web site www.momentofluxury.com, which will offer travel and design tips as well as blogs, chats, video previews and original webisodes, featuring material not seen in the series and interviews with Stubbs.

Moment of Luxury was conceived by Executive Producer William Stubbs. Lawrence Scott, Sarah Frank, Sarah Greer and Eve Krzyzanowski are also executive producers.
