This weekend’s BKLYN DESIGNS shows off the best in contemporary home design
We’re not talking about Ikea here, folks.
Manhattan may still be the home of fashion design, but Brooklyn is the place for home design. Thousands of people will be in DUMBO this weekend to check out the latest in contemporary furnishings, lighting and home accessories being produced in, and inspired by, Brooklyn at the 11th annual BKLYN DESIGNS show taking place at St. Ann’s Warehouse and Mark Jupiter’s on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
“This weekend’s BKLYN DESIGN show isn’t just Brooklyn’s premier design event, it’s a showcase for the kinds of jobs that are attracting the talented and creative people to our borough, and driving economic activity here to new heights,” said Carlo A. Scissura, president of the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce. “We have an entire weekend full of events and workshops that blend design, architecture, technology and fun in a way that is Brooklyn through-and-through.”
