Since
1990 Architectural Digest has been naming the world’s preeminent
architects and designers to a select group known as the AD100. An
arbiter of excellence, this exclusive list recognizes establishment
icons and enterprising trailblazers whose work is as inspiring as it is
influential. These are the men and women who are shaping the way we
live—one building, one house, one room at a time.
