WHO MADE THE ELLE DECOR A-LIST?

As someone who is always interested in what designers are doing some of the best work out there today, lists help. Elle Decor recently announced their 2016 A List in their June issue. The newest additions to the list, now in its 7th year? David Mann, Ken Fulk, Beth Martin of Martin Group and Jason and Katie Maine of Maine Design.  I asked Editor in Chief Michael Boodro what the criteria is for making the cut. He shared, “To join the esteemed roster of A-List talents, a designer has to have both a broad range of work, and a uniquely personal vision. We look for designers who both surprise and delight us, ones we know maintain a level of excellence in all their work.” To get the full scoop, check out the June issue for the rest of the list.
