The second annual NYCxDesign festival––a citywide affair taking place later this month––will cover everything from architecture and fashion, to graphic, interior, and urban design.

The festival will kick off on May 8 with Collective 2, a showcase featuring contemporary and 20th century design from both new and established designers. The following day marks the beginning of this year's Frieze Art Fair, which shall exhibit over 190 of the world's most renowned galleries. Local and foreign professionals alike––from Brooklyn to London, and everywhere in between––will flock to the city in honor of the phenomenal affair, and for the first time the event will show Offsite: a satellite exhibition organized by the online publication Sight Unseen that will showcase a handful of independent and innovative brands.

The heart of the Festival is of course the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF, for short). The 26th edition of the world-famous, four-day event will feature over 500 exhibitors from all facets of interior design and home decor.
