Like our news director, Jenna M. McKnight, I also missed many New York Design Week events while in D.C. for the American Institute of Architects conference, but I did get to check out the International Contemporary Furniture Fair before it closed yesterday. A few highlights are below. Check out even more in our Facebook photo gallery.
