In conjunction with local chapters of IFDA and IDS, NKBA Manhattan celebrated the much-anticipated annual Summer Social at the B/S/H/ Experience and Design Center in the A&D Building. The evening's theme was Carnival, with guests enjoying live music and mingling with fellow members of the New York interior design industry while nibbling Brazilian cuisine and sipping refreshing cocktails. Topnotch door prizes were aplenty, including an Ethan Allen gift card, luxury bath fixtures, and more.
A big thank you to our Chapter sponsor, Thermador, Douglas Stonecipher, and the team for producing another remarkable event!
