Architectural Digest Show 2012

It's that time of the year again. Spring is here and so is the Architectural Digest Show. I love to go every year to see what interesting tid bits vendors are showcasing. However, for me, the most interesting and fun part of the show, is the Diffa Dining by Design NY.

Diffa, Desgin Industry Foundation Fighting Aids, raises money to provide care for people living with AIDS/ HIV and educaitonal resources for those living in high risk areas. Supporters come from all areas of design and visual arts. Every year they have a spectacular showcase of innovative and conceptual designs. I just love it! Check them out at www.diffa.org .

These are some of my favorites from the exhibit. Some are a lot of fun, bright, and colorful.



Some are simply elegant.




I think these are all great inspriations for decorating table settings. Especially with holiday dinners around coming up, how nice to maybe think a little outside of the box and make a great dining experience for your guest.


Marimekko. Can you say YUMMY!



Very clean and sophisiticated. Love this for a simple little gathering.





Love the Native American influence.



Everything covered in plastic. Hmmm.., this would be an interesting idea for a  rib dinner or maybe if  your guest consist of children and you want to be extra  cautious in case of messy spills.










I'm totally feeling inspired.
