Honoring Men and Women in Design

I just received an invitation to a party honoring women in design. In order to further the celebration of women in this field, I offer three personal interiors by men who had professional partnerships with some of the most important women designers of the 20th century: Billy Baldwin, a protégé of Ruby Ross Woods; Carlton Varney who carries on the work of Dorothy Draper; and Albert Hadley who founded Parish-Hadley with the formidable Sister Parish.
Should there be reciprocal party honoring men in design?

The shift in media coverage of interior design from men to women in the last thirty years is notable.

Billy Baldwin was also Kitty Baldwin's brother--Kitty was the proprietor of the modernist design emporium Baldwin Kingrey in Chicago, and an interior designer herself. Like the Trienalle lamp
