MEATPACKING DISTRICT DESIGN 2011
The Meatpacking District will host its sixth annual Design Week- a series of furniture and design exhibits and installations throughout the neighborhood during the ICFF. It will culminate in a district-wide open house on Sunday May 15, from 5:00 - 9:00 PM.
Meatpacking Design is a high-profile series of exhibitions, installations, product launches, and cocktail parties. These events coincide with the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF), held at the Jacob Javits Center.
Last year over 25,000 designers, architects and international press attended New York Design Week, during ICFF at the Jacob Javits Center. In the past few years, the importance of "off-site culture" has become a vital element of the landscape during this market week, garnering extensive worldwide media coverage.
