Timothy Corrigan, award-winning interior designer recognized internationally for his interior designs and furniture collections, will be honored as the 2017 Design Icon during Winter Las Vegas Market, January 22-26, 2017. Corrigan will share his experiences working with an impressive array of high-profile clients, as well as impart his design wisdom and philosophies.

The centerpiece of programming at Las Vegas Winter Market, the Design Icon Award honors an interior designer who has made a significant contribution to the industry throughout their career. Now in its 11th year, the Design Icon Award seeks to both highlight the achievements of important designers and to offer Las Vegas Market attendees an opportunity to learn from living legends.

Timothy Corrigan has made an indelible imprint on interior design that transcends time,” said Bob Maricich, chief executive officer of International Market Centers. “He has the unique ability to bring his distinctive design aesthetic in a way that feels luxurious yet comfortable and practical. He also happens to be a great guy, and we are thrilled to have him as this year's Design Icon honoree.”

With offices in Paris and Los Angeles, Corrigan's global design philosophy combines European elegance with California comfort. He is a fixture on the AD100, the annual list of top architects and designers compiled by Architectural Digest, where he has remained from 2007 to present. He is regularly featured on television and in prestigious publications such as: Elle Décor, The New York Times, Town & Country, Veranda, House Beautiful, Traditional Home, Luxe Interiors + Design, Vanity Fair, Vogue and The Wall Street Journal. Clients include royalty, Hollywood celebrities and corporate leaders.

I am honored to receive the Design Icon Award from Las Vegas Market,Corrigan said. “This recognition is a wonderful validation of my work as an interior and product designer.”

Additional accolades include the “Star of Design Award” from the Pacific Design Center and he was the first American designer honored by the French Heritage Society for his restoration of several national landmarks in France.

Timothy has designed fabrics, trims, furniture and floor covering for Schumacher and Patterson, Flynn & Martin, as well as two tabletop collections for Royal Limoges. His collection of plumbing and door hardware for THG Paris, passementerie for Samuel & Sons and wallpaper for Fromental, will debut in 2017 and 2018, respectively.

His book, An Invitation to Château du Grand-Lucé, is a lavishly illustrated monograph that highlights Corrigan's design philosophy and brings to life the fundamental principles at the heart of his work. Published by Rizzoli, the tome chronicles the restoration that he conducted of his 18th century château in the Loire Valley.

The 2017 Design Icon presentation will take place on Tuesday, January 24 at 10 a.m. in the WorldView Room, 16th floor, Building B. The event will include a presentation by Timothy Corrigan, followed by a Q&A session with Bob Maricich of IMC. Immediately following the Design Icon presentation will be a book signing of Corrigan's latest book, An Invitation to Château du Grand-Lucé.

As the newest Design Icon honoree, Corrigan joins previous recipients Thomas Pheasant, Carleton Varney, Barbara Barry, Vladimir Kagan, Juan Montoya, Vicente Wolf, Christopher Guy, Larry Laslo, Roger Thomas, Jamie Drake and Alexa Hampton.
