One of the best parts of ICFF every year, hands down, is the designboom mart. Not only is it like a mad flea market with vendors selling their wares and people waving money, there truly is an excitement in the air that you generally don't find in the thousand dollar exhibit booths across the way.These are young (or new) designers who are eager (and happy) to talk about their work. That's not too much to ask from the design world is it? Here are the highlights from this year's group (from top to bottom):
- Concrete Rings from 22designstudio (not new, but I bought one so...)
- Kubo Bowls made from steel and found branches
- Skin Series Vases by The Mighty Bearcats (they remind me of the Studiomold vases I wrote about for MoCo...I knew I would remember that!)
- Nice ceramic vases by Erika Hegenberg
- Calendar Vase by the Nothing Design Group (there is a bud vase suspended inside the pages)
