Save the Date: Student Design Day Highlights Emerging Talent in 2012 (Part 3)

The Student Design Day schedule at the DDB is packed with showroom open houses, product launches, and panel discussions. We've given you a few fab events for the morning, and now we're sharing some afternoon delights for you to pencil in.


At 1:30 p.m., Edelman Leather, Suite 207, believes that "today's students are tomorrow's designers"... so please join the showroom and explore a Wonderful World of Leather for Interiors and learn things you never knew! With more than 75 products and 800 colors, Edelman Leather offers total freedom—freedom in color, texture, and style.




At 2 p.m., Fortuny, Suite 1632, hosts Technology and the World of Interior Design. Mickey and Maury Riad, owners of the legendary Fortuny, are taking the interiors world by storm. Every Fortuny fabric is still produced in the same factory, on the same machines, using the same secret process and techniques handed down from generation to generation. Still, just as Mariano Fortuny used his love for the past and respect for tradition to create something completely new, Fortuny today continues to pioneer in the world of design and technology.


At 3:30 p.m., Editor at Large will present How to Succeed in the Design Business, featuring three top designers sharing their post-design school experiences: trials and tribulations of getting started, landing their first job, and recognizing their big break. Tips and advice will be offered on paving a path to success in a rapidly changing industry.


Other participating showrooms include Edward Ferrell, Gracie, Artistic Frame, Schumacher, Lutron, Romo, and Kravet.
