We like to tell the stories behind products, but hear it from the designers themselves at
Product Placement 1.3, happening Thursday, May 28, 7-9 p.m. at
Designtex’s New York showroom, located at 200 Varick Street. Our theme this time is sustainable design, and our presenters are Harry Allen, MIO, Andrea Ruggiero, Karl Zahn, and Boa/Object Interiors. Each will give a five-minute rundown on the influences behind one of their products, followed by audience questions. $5 admission includes cocktails and various surprises. Space is limited, so it is essential to RSVP to
thisisproductplacement@gmail.com.
