The International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) kicks off this Saturday at New York’s cavernous Jacobs Javits Center, and our UnBeige mailboxes (real and virtual) runneth over with exciting news, events, and promises of fresh-from-the-studio furniture and objets. We’re particularly excited about the American Design Honors, a new annual award program sponsored by Stylus (a forecasting service for the interiors, design, and lifestyle industries founded by WGSN’s Marc Worth) and Bernhardt Design, whose Fabien Baron-designed B.1 chair is a coveted perch at UnBeige HQ. Developed to support the future of American product design, the American Design Honors will provide both exposure and financial support to young designers. The inaugural honorees are Jonah Takagi of Washington D.C.-based Atelier Takagi (Emerging Designer of the Year), and Ini Archibong, a student at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena (Student Designer of the Year). Both honorees will be hosted by Stylus and Bernhardt Design at ICFF and will each receive a cash honorarium. A short award ceremony will take place on Saturday at 4 p.m. at the Bernhardt Design booth.
