Due to budgetary constraints, BKLYN DESIGNS™ will not be taking place in DUMBO, Brooklyn this year. Instead, we have opted to take a group of selected designers to showcase cutting edge Brooklyn style in a curated booth at the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF), May 14 to May 17. It was an extremely selective process as our celebrity jury reviewed over 150 applications to select the top 9 designers.
We look forward to launching BKLYN DESIGNS™ bigger and better next year to celebrate its 10th Anniversary! Check back in September for information about BKLYN DESIGNS™ 2012: A Decade and Beyond!
