ICFF 2014: Unexpected Designs By: Grace Bonney

Every year at ICFF there’s something that makes me stop, smile or turn my head and ask a question. These are the pieces that stay with me and are usually the things I end up telling people about the most when I recap the show in person. From giant inflatable beach ball lights (which were just a delight in person) to sandwich-shaped notebooks, these little unexpected highlights at the show really make my day. Some of these designs (like mushroom toothpicks) are lighthearted and others are more serious and come with a deeper story. I hope you’ll enjoy them all- especially the little surprise embroidered drawers in Volk‘s dresser. I didn’t see that coming and it was such a fun surprise. xo, grace
