The judges have spoken! The editors and art directors at SALON TODAY recently convened and selected 23 finalists in our 2024 SALONS OF THE YEAR, a photo-based interior design competition that showcases these gorgeous and innovative spaces that have been newly constructed or recently renovated. 

In the coming weeks, we will be preparing experiential content that will take you on a virtual tour of each of these amazing spaces, as well as naming one overall Salon of the Year, but for now we'll whet your appetite with just one shot from each of these locales.
