DESIGNING WOMEN
Spring 2017
304 Hudson Street, New York, NY 10013
Presented by Egg Collective
Co-Curated by Crystal Ellis, Hillary Petrie and Stephanie Beamer
Egg Collective is thrilled to unveil the group show “Designing Women”, which brings together 15 New York-based female-led design companies at Egg Collective’s Soho Showroom. The show highlights women at all stages in their careers working in a variety of materials, scales, and disciplines.
The show is curated by the three co-founders of Egg Collective - Stephanie Beamer, Crystal Ellis, and Hillary Petrie. The show’s theme emerged after the trio had a series of conversations about what it meant to be women in the design industry, and in the world at large, in the year 2017. The exhibition is intended to call attention to the inequities that still remain for women, encourage diversity of representation for women and minorities, and celebrate the wealth of talented women working in the New York design community.

“Women in the design industry are still a minority, especially women who are fabricating and designing ... We exist, we’re powerful, we’re going to give each other a leg up.”
