Announcing Our Las Vegas Market 2022 Design Icon
Join us at Winter Market, January 23-27, 2022, to meet Kathryn Ireland, a legendary designer, and hear her entertaining stories about building an international design career.
Internationally acclaimed architect Frank Gehry is head of Gehry Partners, a full-service firm with broad international experience in academic, commercial, museum, performance and residential projects, and is considered “architectural royalty” throughout the world. Gehry has redefined architecture in numerous cities across the globe and continues to shape contemporary commercial and residential landscapes.
Corrigan’s global design philosophy combines European elegance with California comfort. He has been hailed in Architectural Digest as “Today’s Tastemaker” and has been named to most of the design world’s best designer lists, including the AD100, Robb Report’s Top 40 and the Luxe Gold List.
Pheasant is recognized internationally for his interior designs and furniture collections. Pheasant was honored by Architectural Digest in 2005 with the distinction “Dean of American Design,” and he is a fixture on the AD100, the annual list of top architects and designers compiled by the magazine.
Varney is president of New York-based Dorothy Draper & Co. Inc., one of the oldest established interior design firms in the United States. His design philosophy, much like Dorothy Draper’s, stresses the use of bright colors and the rejection of all that is impractical, uncomfortable and drab.
Thomas, Founder of The Roger Thomas Collection and Executive Vice President of Wynn Design & Development is one of the world’s foremost hospitality designers. Consistently named in the AD100, he is based in Las Vegas and finds much of his inspiration from other cultures.
