Today may be International Women's Day, but female designers are busy at work all year long. So we're celebrating by highlighting 22 top projects designed by women in 2018.
1. Shinola Hotel by Christine Gachot of Gachot Studios
As the lead designer, Christine Gachot chose a warm combination of caramels, browns, and a signature blue. In the living room lounge, the woodburning fireplace and Italian marble mantel are newly added. Mohair-covered sofas are among the many American-made furnishings throughout the property.
2. Hele International Art Center by Ming Leung of Pone Architecture
A curious remark by Leung's daughter inspired this project's interior. Leung followed her sense of wonder with a design that mimicked the way bubbles stretch as they float through the air.
3. Thousand Oaks Residence by Nicole Hollis
White walls and beamed ceilings throughout provide a clean backdrop, but a few walls were painted dark colors to add depth and interest. Soft celadon and other barely-there tones distinguish furnishings, the hues inspired by eggs from the chickens the home's family used to keep in Malibu.
