Inspired Design… Tired Feet!
guest post written by IFDA NY member Dwayne Clark
Here we are at the end of a beautiful and restful summer with fond memories of the beach, the pool, loads of sun, and of course copious amounts of cool drinks to keep us “hydrated”. One harbinger of the new season is the ever exciting Fall NY NOW Home, Lifestyle + Gift Market. Walking the aisles and experiencing all that is new and fresh in the world of home and lifestyle products and design puts us right where we need to be to start the Fall season off right! Every market our group of talented judged from all over the world of design chooses their favorites in all different categories… Some new, some tried and true. Here are this Fall Market’s very talented winners.
