Find out the latest trends in interior design from Design on a Dime, an annual fundraising event that showcases curated vignettes made with designer furniture.
The third annual fundraising event, Design on a Dime was hosted by Housing Works, a national nonprofit to raise funds for AIDS research and homelessness on February 3 and 4. Faena Art‘s Artistic Director, Ximena Caminos and Rudy Weissenberg were honored as the night’s honorary guests.
The two-day interior design benefit and sale kicked off with a media preview night on February 2. While a VIP preview was held on February 3 which featured a private cocktail reception from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. and followed by the Chairman’s dinner at 8 p.m. The night continued with a night reception sale until 9:30 p.m.
James Huniford, the Founding Chair of Design on a Dime, and Co-Chairs Whitney Robinson, Amanda Lindroth and Rudy Weissenberg were the speakers of the venue.
Over 30 interior designers took over the Moore Building in the Design District and showcased home decor donated directly from top brands priced up to 80 percent off. The venue doubled as a shopping frenzy for guests and included clothes and items for interior decorating such as furniture, artwork and more. If after seeing all these designs, you feel inspired to redecorate your home, then there are loads of furniture shops that you could go to, for example, you could check out furniture in fashion and hopefully you’ll find something you love.
