Happy 21st

We didn't believe it was possible, but the 21st annual Interior Design Hall of Fame awards were better than the year before. The dinner at New York's Waldorf-Astoria attracted more glamour and even more guests— a record crowd of 1,380 applauded our design inductees Gisue and Mojgan Hariri, Kitty Hawks, Piero Lissoni, and Clive Wilkinson as well as special inductee Barry Sternlicht, the founder and chairman emeritus of Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide. And everyone went home accessorized with an Interface carpet bag, made specially for the occasion.
