Learning About Boston Design Week
New year not only means a new you but time to get some new furniture. Learn about Boston Design Week and how it plans to be run this year and how it can make you feel more at home.
With 2021 being the year of change, why not include your house to the list? Whether you’re looking to replace a single piece of furniture or redo a whole room, Boston Design Week can help make your dream home a reality.
With COVID-19 having all events shift virtually both last year and this year, Boston Design Week followed, not letting the hindsight of the pandemic deter its annual event. As the saying goes: the show must go on, and it did in usual fashion. On Boston Design Guide’s blog, it mentioned how the event started off with a “Fall Market” that took place over Zoom and Instagram. Following came weekly panel events like “Inside and Out: Making the Most out of your Indoor and Outdoor Space”, “Ten Designers to Buy Now—Create a Unique Work-From-Home Space with Objects from Auctions and “Perform Design Magic with The Galley” hosted by notable names including Anelle Gandelman of A-List Interiors, Taniya Nayak of HG-TV and President Sean Clarke of Clarke’s.
Sponsors from last year’s event included Modern Luxury Interiors Boston, GBH, Boston Magazine, Boston Home and prominent companies.
This year’s event also looks to incorporate new aspects, including a Special Focus Section where a specific category will get an exclusive section for attendees to look at. This year, the Special Focus Section will focus on landscape design and outdoor, where it will highlight landscape architecture, commercial/residential, and garden pools, patio and decks.
Another exciting feature the event will have is Special Focus Tracks. Described as “an exclusive and devoted section to the festival,” it has four specific categories set up: Architecture and Urban Planning, Professional Focus, Design and Social Impact and Handmade Design. If an event falls into one of these categories, it will receive a track destination logo, allowing for attendees to find the event quicker.
If sounds like something your interested in having your company participate in, the cutoff date to sign up is Feb. 22. For more information regarding Boston Design Week, click here and you will be sent to the event’s website.
I want to move to Boston when i graduate college. I visted for a week when i was in highschool and loved it! I am just worried that straight out of college in the graphic design field, i won’t make enough money. The cost of living is much higher then I’m used to. Any suggestions?
