New York Design City is proud to announce that this July there will be a ‘Design Month’. Design Month will celebrate the architects behind some of the most important buildings in New York City and their furniture.
During the month of July you will get to see a series of specially commissioned chairs which will be popping up around the city in front of buildings created by significant architect-designers.
Buildings across the city will include the Seagram Building, Whitney Museum, Lipstick Building, the Guggenheim Museum and more.
A series of lectures by current designer-architects, curators, and historians will be held throughout the month to educate the public on New York design and explain the correlation between the buildings and the furniture design.
There will also be a Auction and Gala fundraising event at the Modern in conjunction with the Metropolitan Museum of Art, with all proceeds benefiting Design 21: Better Design For the Greater Good, a non-profit charity associated with UNICEF.
