The main talks will occur on the Mainstage and The Oasis space. The Mainstage is sponsored by Turf. Additionally, focused conversations will take place in new dedicated spaces such as Bespoke, Crossroads, Look Book with media partner Dezeen, and Kitchen + Bath.
The Oasis returns as a space to relax and listen to intimate panel discussions. We will continue to host conversations in this space about sustainability and conscious design topics. Sponsors include EQ3 and Greenmood.
The Welcome x Moooi Lounge will return as the Fair’s official welcome point. The lounge will include a NYCxDESIGN concierge desk.
Many country groups from around the world are joining ICFF in 2024, including Norway, Brazil, Portugal, and Romania to name a few.
Judged by a select panel of design editors, the ICFF Editors Awards honors the best of the best in this year’s exhibitor product launches.
Dedicated to emerging design, Wanted returns as a centerpiece of ICFF with Look Book, Launch Pad, the Schools Showcase, and the Design Schools Workshop.
Returning in 2024 at the heart of the fair, The Crossroads will be a collaboration between the ICFF brand directors; Creative Director David Rockwell, founder of Rockwell Group; and co-curator and editor Pei-Ru Keh. Sustainability, in its complex and multifaceted form, serves as the focal point of The Crossroads’ second iteration.
