Home Decor Expo in NYC: ICFF Recap

What sources do interior designers use?

As an interior designer, attending the trade market allows brands and designers to meet. I especially enjoy attending ICFF, (International Contemporary Furniture Fair) where I can discover the latest in original and sustainable design by over 300 established and emerging brands.

I also find inspiration through ICFF Talks, a focused lineup of panel sessions led by the iconic names in the industry; offering nuggets of wisdom to widen my business and professional networks.

Where do designers source unique products?

Kartell & LAUFEN: A Collaboration for a modern bathroom

Two iconic design brands, Kartell and Laufen, have come together to create a new collection of bathroom fixtures that are both stylish and sustainable. The collection, which was unveiled at the Salone del Mobile in Milan in April, features a range of washbasins, toilets, bathtubs, and faucets that combine the best of Kartell's innovative plastics technology with Laufen's expertise in high-quality ceramics.

In addition to their stylish design, the Kartell by Laufen fixtures are also highly functional. The washbasins are made from durable, scratch-resistant materials, and the toilets feature a rimless design that makes them easy to clean. The bathtubs are made from lightweight, heat-resistant materials, and the faucets are made from high-quality, corrosion-resistant metals.

The Kartell by Laufen collection is a perfect choice for anyone who wants a bathroom that is both stylish and sustainable.

Sustainable Features of the Kartell by Laufen Collection

In addition to being stylish and functional, the Kartell by Laufen collection is also made with sustainability in mind. The collection's washbasins are made from recycled plastics, and the toilets are made from water-saving materials. The bathtubs are made from recycled materials, and the faucets are made from low-flow materials.

The Kartell by Laufen collection is a great choice for anyone who wants a bathroom that is both stylish and sustainable. The collection's sustainable features will help you save water and energy, and they will also help to reduce your impact on the environment.

Design alert: Note the hidden drain concealed beautifully in the back reveal offering more storage in the bathroom.  A clean modern detail to love.


Bathroom Vanities

I had the pleasure of discovering the Bauhaus Bathroom Collection which is crafted in Canada. This collection is a true work of art, with clean lines and a modern design that will instantly elevate any bathroom.

The Bauhaus bathroom collection is available in a variety of wood finishes and laminate, so you can choose the perfect look for your space. It is also available in wall-mounted or free-standing styles, so you can customize it to your needs.

One of the things I love most about the Bauhaus bathroom collection is that it is an all-in-one package. The vanity, stone top, and plumbing fixtures all come together, so you don't have to worry about finding coordinating pieces. This makes it easy and affordable to update your bathroom with a high-quality, modern look.

It is also available at a great price point, making it a perfect option for high-end condominiums, renovations, or new builds. ( trade only: contact us for a quote)

In previous years, pre covid, we would always visit the annual Wilsonart Challenge.  Wilsonart offers a student design competition to a selected University annually.  

This year Appalachian State University rose to the challenge.  It was an outpouring of talent, and we had the pleasure of meeting some of these students with the new chairs they crafted using laminates. Learn more about these students and their products here.
