Our 75+ Favorite Finds From New York Design Week 2018

With the move of Collective Design back to March, NYCxDesign — nowadays jokingly referred to as “New York Design Month” — technically shrunk a bit this year to just 15 days long, from the beginning of Egg Collective’s Designing Women show to the last day of ICFF. Yet its cornucopia of content was as impressive as ever, with the usual shows at ICFF, Wanted Design, Colony, The Future Perfect, and Matter being joined by projects like the collective, designer-curated group exhibition Next Level; John Hogan teaming up with Bec Brittain for a launch in her showroom; takeovers of the Standard East Village Hotel by Good Thing and of Anthom by Pieces; and a special presentation by Ladies & Gentlemen Studio at Muji that we’ll feature separately later this week. Co. Design wrote a long, smart analysis of the whole thing, but their biggest takeaway was that “this year’s edition of NYCxDesign genuinely felt like a cultural event, more akin to fashion week or a film festival than a staid trade show” — which is what we’ve been aiming for all along. Take a look at our favorites from New York Design Week 2018 below.
