Stopped into the presentation that Hudson Furniture was having during Design Week, incredible as always. Hudson Furniture Inc. respects the natural forms of trees and inherent grain of wood with well defined organic lines and geometric forms using traditional joinery techniques and hand rubbed oil finishes.

ICFF was really tight and focused this year. Given that the market is still not back to normal, only the “best of the best” exhibited.
The 22nd Annual International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) at New York’s City’s Jacob K. Javits Convention Center is a worldwide wonder for design disciples. North America’s singular showcase for contemporary design, the fair draws the most intrepid seekers of design trends to an extraordinary exhibition of the most inspired models of design on the forefront, as well as thought-provoking programs and a schedule of supplementary exhibits and features.
