Bklyn Designs: All systems go for dynamic Greenpoint show
With less than four weeks until show time, the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce is putting the finishing touches on an all-new, three-day exhibition of design creativity in the borough. BKLYN DESIGNS — the internationally renowned juried exhibition of contemporary furniture, lighting, accessories and art from Brooklyn — will take place May 8 to 10 at the Brooklyn Expo Center, the event’s new location in Greenpoint.
It will be the first design show to officially kick off NYCxDESIGN — New York City’s weeklong design festival.
The show will feature exhibitors hailing from design and manufacturing hubs across Brooklyn, including Greenpoint, the Brooklyn Navy Yard, Bushwick, Industry City, Williamsburg, Red Hook, DUMBO and beyond. Show producers have also tapped industry leaders and thinkers to develop a robust program of seminars, events and installations to celebrate and explore design collaboration on all scales.
