This year’s 1stDibs 50 cohort includes a diverse and inspiring group of talent, with 26 of the awarded firms being owned and led by women. The list also honors the work of a wide array of outstanding designers of color and incredibly accomplished LGBTQ+ designers. The honored designers range from those who lead large, well-established, multi-city firms to young studios with just a handful of employees. Indeed, in a consistent effort to spotlight the newest and brightest international design talent, 15 firms have been welcomed to this list for the first time.
