We have just returned from our yearly excursion to the International Contemporary Furniture Fair in NYC, and have lots of goodies to share with you! ELLE's principal designer, Erica, has been attending this show religiously since 2007, and always leaves feeling inspired and rejuvenated. This is THE place to see new work from independent designers, right alongside the staples of contemporary design.
Here's a round up of some of our faves...
1. APPARATUS
Their tiny installation, made a HUGE impact on everyone at the show! Not only is their lighting incredible, but the way they showcased it was breathtaking. Wall to wall (and ceiling!) covered in a stone-like wall covering. Simply stunning.
2. BERNHARDT
A design world giant, never ceases to amaze.
3. Elodie Blanchard
Her sweet, yet well executed, embroidered pillows are screaming to be scattered about a child's bedroom. LOVE!
4. kinder GROUND
They literally launched their company on the first day of the show... that's our kind of guts! Their modular carpet tiles can be arranged in 37 different patterns, and are able to stand up to high foot traffic areas, without sacrificing style.
5. Iacoli & McAllister
Not only furniture and lighting, but even jewelry! This company has a firm handle on their signature prismatic style... being a bunch of lighting fanatics ourselves, we couldn't get enough of their scattered lighting clusters.
6. Tracy Glover
100% hand blown and made to order in her Rhode Island studio. Everything is customizable in every way you can imagine. Just look at that corner mounted wall sconce!
7. Jill Malek
A new collaboration between children's interior decorators, Sissy + Marley, and renowned artist, Jill Malek. These sophisticated wallcoverings would be at home in a Nursery, just as much as they would be in a Foyer or Breakfast Room.
Stay tuned for more product reveals in the coming weeks!
