The Iconic Home, a virtual showhouse presented by Architectural Digest and the Black Interior Designers Network (BIDN), is opening its doors next month. And today, the roster of designers and architects participating has been announced, adding more detail and excitement in the lead-up to the first-of-its-kind event.
Sixteen firms from across the country are lending their talents to the showhouse. Brooklyn-based firm Studio 397 Architecture is responsible for the overall architectural design, while each additional participant has been assigned one room or area of the house, ranging from the laundry room to the rooftop terrace. Taken together, their interiors will form an inspiring virtual dwelling that highlights the breadth of Black design creativity.
