It’s true. We’re making our NYIGF debut at Accent on Design and our booth is gonna rock! We’re thrilled to be pooling resources with Poketo, AlissiaMT, WATDesign, & Adam Frank.
The show runs Jan. 28 - Feb. 1 and our booth is #3877. So write that on your hand in permanent marker, and come check out the goods. Here’s a sneak preview.

Adam Frank (above) has a cool new product that explores light, shadow, nature, and technology. You’ve gotta see this in person, it’s really amazing. And of course he’ll be showing his whole successful Lumen line…

Poketo is presenting a line of artist-designed melamine plates, loads of wallets, brand new journals, magnets, and more…

AllisiaMT has new jewelry & accessories, including these mirrors and her super-popular rings..

And WATDesign is fresh from The Netherlands with great modular coat racks and groovy paper chandeliers!
