Dezeen Events Guide launches digital guide to NYCxDesign 2023

As for that electric, Billie Eilish green seen on the floors and walls at Gucci—it had its moments too. We stumbled across it in several locations, especially among labels focused on sustainable production. Future Impact, for example, showed the Monolith table and chair by David Lee, while Hydro had seven renowned designers make objects made of recycled aluminum, in which the bright green appeared again and again.

The sculpture itself nods to another sun-inspired creation, the whimsical “Solar Do-Nothing” machine created by famed furniture maker Eames in 1957. The Brooklyn-based design studio Bower’s expertise with mirrors reaches a new height with a five-strong collection of mirrors designed by Ana Kraš that riff on the artist/designer’s figurative drawings. Referencing Kraš’ expressive use of line, color, and texture, the tag team transformed these elements into compositions of shapes that are harmoniously arranged around the mirror’s edge to forming a deconstructed frame. The hand-drawn lines materialized into dimensional metal components that clip onto the outer edges of the glass to playfully mimic the contrast of crayon on paper.

Lee Broom, "Observatory"

A couple of feet away from Liam Lee’s chairs at Salon was Julian Watts’s Tree, a sculpture the Oregon-based woodworker made from twigs he found around his studio. Tree is composed of hand-carved and chiseled knobs, paddles, and tubes made from maple, walnut, oak, redwood, ash, pine, and fir that protrude from an eight-foot-tall bleached totem. (It sort of reminded me of Bruce Lee’s wooden dummy.) Some featured dimpled surfaces, others were polished smooth; they protruded from the central column like fungi on a log. During the pandemic, he began to read poetry from the 13th-century Buddhist Shiwu, which changed how he engaged with his five-acre plot of forested land where he foraged for wood.

Glass artist Amber Cowan’s fantastical and surreal sculpture Visions of the Night Muse in Jade, at Heller Gallery’s Salon booth, featured what looked (to me) like dozens of little button mushrooms bursting through an overgrowth of flowers. Maison Intègre, the Burkina Faso-based metalsmithing workshop and foundry, has teamed up with designer Noé Duchafour Lawrance on a series of bronze and brass works. Maison Integre’s founder Amber Jarno invited Duchafour Lawrance to spend extensive periods of time with the studio’s artisans and community, resulting in a collection of work that reinterprets and translates forms often seen sculpted in wood or clay, this time realised in metal.

Los Angeles favorites Bzippy & Co and Block Shop delivered crowd-pleasing introductions as well, with the former showing larger sizes than ever before and the latter debuting wallpaper (and a new, nostalgic, floral pattern, called Poppy, that is sure to make waves with decorators everywhere). Capturing the imagination of designers—or at least us editors at AD PRO—Emtek displayed their 3D-printed, limited-edition Galapagos collection, designed by William Zhang. Since no two pieces in the line are alike, pros can give clients a true one-of-a-kind design.

So whether you're a native New Yorker or in town for the fairs, be sure to stop by the dozens of installations, activations, pop-ups, and more taking over the city. Here are our favorites (we'll update this list daily with new openings over the coming week and a half). IFDA, the International Furnishings and Design Association, will be holding a Japan Fair to mark the occasion.

He thought about the shapes he saw in nature that repulsed him yet made him want to touch them and about the weirdness he found there. His Moon sculpture — of wood knobs erupting from an undulating surface — has that effect as well, of simultaneously repelling and attracting a closer look. It triggered trypophobia while also reminding me of an acorn woodpecker’s grotesque-looking granary tree. Join WantedDesign and Ayse Birsel, one of the world’s leading industrial designers, for a meet-the-author event for her newest book, “Design the Long Life You Love” at The Lounge at the Javits Center.

Created as a direct response to a culmination of frustration by the independent design community towards having designs being directly reproduced without sharing credits or profits, Colony’s latest exhibition showcases new designs inspired by works from the past. In a move that underscores the ethics behind drawing inspiration, the presentation includes a collaborative piece by Studio Paolo Ferrari and Hiroko Takeda, and a new credenza by Grain. Starting this year, Pijoulat and Hainaut served as ICFF + WantedDesign brand directors, overseeing programming for both entities, which were located under one roof at the Javits Centre, as has been for the past two years. Though it might not yet carry the same clout as the Salone del Mobile or Dutch Design Week, NYCxDesign, otherwise known as New York Design Week, is beginning to give its European counterparts a run for their money.

As New York City prepares to roll out its annual home design event starting in May, we share a plenitude of bright spots to look out for this year. Otras Formas, a buzzy, new design brand launched by Alex Lithgow, former head of design at Dmitriy & Co., exhibited inaugural “footed” and “serif end” collections, with furnishings by Kin & Company, Algierwork, and James Dieter. From unique displays at Frama’s New York outpost, Lambert & Fils’s Tribeca showroom, and the “Flower Craft” exhibition at the Museum of Arts and Design (MAD), florals were in abundance—putting specialists like Brooklyn-based Fernando Kabigting in high demand.

A short stroll from the Javits Center, the Ritz Carlton Nomad’s recently opened Zaytinya will provide with Mediterranean fare in abundance—enough to sustain an afternoon of touring downtown storefronts. Revelie Luncheonette is a new offshoot of beloved brasserie Raoul’s, perfect for those visiting SoHo. Swan Room and Le Dive in micro-neighborhood Dimes Square have become local favorites and will serve as good venues for end-of-day libations. Milanese-inspired Saraghina Caffè in Fort Greene and Bar Americano in Greenpoint are musts. The show is co-curated by Lora Appleton of Female Design Council, and Andrea Hill of furniture studio Tortuga Forma. However, there are a few clusters where visitors can see many things at once, such as design districts in Soho and around the New York Design Center in Manhattan, as well as Brooklyn Navy Yard and Industry City in Brooklyn.
