Every year there are thousands of design events across the United States, but several large markets stand out as the industry leaders, bringing together the design community across the country to shop the latest from top furniture showrooms and home decor manufacturers. While I’ve had the chance to attend events at ADAC and markets at AmericasMart and High Point Market, I recently was introduced to a few more markets and got the chance to get to know them at the Design Influencers Conference in Atlanta last month. It’s amazing how much inspiration you can soak up, and the amazing organic networking that happens at market events, and I look forward to attending some of the shows below that I have never been to before. Find out all the key dates and details below!

ATLANTA DECORATIVE ARTS CENTER
For all of my local readers, ADAC is an incredible resource for Atlanta, and the Southeast as a whole. Each year, they host Trade Talks, Digital Day in February, seasonal product launch showcases, Southeast Designers & Architect of the Year Awards, and a Discover ADAC week in September full of engaging panels and presentations.
