FutureForward
Don’t miss Suomi Design Works’ creation of the FutureForward bar and guestroom at this year’s BDNY, at the Javits Center, New York, November 10th & 11th. The unique social space honors the work of futurist architect Hugh Ferriss’ seminal book The Metropolis of To-Morrow, which forever changed the nature of American cities and introduced Manhattan and the world to the skyscraper. Drawn from the era between Art Deco and Modernism, FutureForwards furnishings, finishes and artworks celebrate verticality, contrast, and chiaroscuro, and are executed in heavy weaves, bronze, dark woods, and angular patterning.
