The essential showcase for luxury and sophistication, The Architectural Digest Design Show (ADDS), returns March 22-25, 2018 to bring together the top residential and hospitality finds from over 400 brands. From furniture, accessories, lighting and art, to kitchen, bath, building products, hardware, and flooring, the show boasts offerings by both independent makers and established manufacturers. Held at Pier 94 in New York, the experience includes insider access to seminar programs headlined by design world luminaries, as well as exciting culinary demonstrations, stunning installations, and VIP industry events, such as DIFFA’s DINING BY DESIGN (co-located at neighboring Pier 92).
