In less than a week, I will be in New York City with
JOIN for
NYIGF.
JOIN, featuring the work of eight Northwest designers and collectives, will combine forces with the
American Design Club and “
A+: The Young Designers’ Platform” to assemble a new section dedicated to emerging design. Positioned just outside the entrance to Accent on Design, visitors entering and exiting the fair will have an opportunity to take extra time to experience new work from up-and-coming designers:

Javits Convention Center, 655 W 34th Street in New York, and will be open 9:00 am - 6:00 pm August 14 - August 17, 2011 and Noon - 6:00 pm August 18, 2011. 35,000 attendees from 50 states and more than 85 countries are expected to attend the five day fair. JOIN will be located in the new emerging design section at the base of the escalators leading to the Accent on Design exhibit floor.
About JOIN
JOIN promotes emerging independent American design by providing designers a forum to show work, get feedback, and share resources. By organizing design shows and events, we strive to be the adhesive and a resource that binds a thriving, but fragmented, furniture and product design community in Seattle.
