Designer Profile: Victoria Hagan

I’ve admired her work for quite some time and rarely find something that doesn’t fit with my style and taste.

“Victoria Hagan has long been respected for the intelligent integration of architecture and interior design. Her design philosophy features a refined use of materials, sophisticated color, and strong silhouettes.

Since founding her firm over 20 years ago, Victoria has designed an extensive number of versatile projects throughout the country, from the most elegant urban residences to casual weekend retreats, noted residential developments, and innovative corporate interiors.

Soon after Victoria began her career, The New York Times described her work as "the most cerebral, the one bound to be influential," and she continues to be a major force in the design community. She is continually featured in such publications as Architectural Digest, Elle Décor, W, Town & Country, Harper's Bazaar, Traditional Home, In Style and Interior Design. Vogue exclaimed that she defies the old school implications of the term 'lady decorator.'

In 2002, she launched an eponymous line of furniture and fabric sold through designer showrooms throughout the country. She was named Furniture Designer of the Year by Elle Décor in 2006.

In December 2004, Victoria Hagan was inducted into the Interior Design Hall of Fame. In addition, she has been awarded many of the country's top design honors, including Architectural Digest's "Top 100".

A graduate of Parsons School of Design, Victoria currently serves on the school's Board of Governors. She recently endowed a scholarship for the newly formed MFA program in Interior Design.

Victoria is a frequent guest speaker on design issues throughout the country, and Rizzoli recently published her first book, Victoria Hagan: Interior Portraits.”
