DIFFA DINING BY DESIGN 2013 - ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST SHOW



This year I was excited to be able to go to the Architectural Digest Home show with #BlogTourNYC - Modenus as a BlogTour alum. I saw some wonderful old friends and met some fantastic new designer friends from abroad amid very tasty Marys & Mimosas, a great event hosted by Veronika Miller of Modenus and the AD Home show.



Part of BlogtourNYC was DIFFA’s (Design Industries Foundation Fighting AIDS) Dining by design.. this is the part of the Architectural Digest Home show where amazing talent creates unique dining–scapes that inspire and amaze. A special treat was when Arteriors owner Mark Mousa and famed Interior Designer Barry Dixon gave us a personal tour!  The creativity this year was beyond amazing: jewel tone colors, layers of texture, bold graphics, and hints of old-world craft combined with modern touches....
