Downtown design show review.
Missed this show during New York Design Week, but organizer Abe Gurko sent us some info and images. Says Abe, "We believe that design needs to be more accessible, not restricted to the piers and corporate types.". Hey, that's our mantra! Located in Chelsea's Drive In Studios, Downtown showcased young designers, their furniture, lighting, rug and accessory creations.
