WestEdge Design Fair offers a more intimate gathering for furnishing fans

Share via

For fans of contemporary design, the WestEdge Design Fair is a smaller, more manageable version of larger furniture fairs such as Dwell on Design and the International Contemporary Furniture Fair.

The intimate, four-day event returns to the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica this month with more than 150 exhibitors, who will display furniture, lighting, accessories, kitchen products and outdoor decor.

Exhibitors include Baker Furniture, ILVE Appliances, Miele, Tidelli Outdoor Living, Smeg and Jenn-Air. New to the event this year is Made: Modern, a selection of limited-edition handcrafted furnishings by independent artists including furniture designer Jason Mizrahi, Blankblank, CP Lighting, Bueno Glass and ceramist Pamela Sunday.

Ireland, Nichole Wright of Bon Vivant Events and Eddie Zaratsian of Tick Tock Floral; and “The New Dynamic: Design Meets Technology,” with Peter Sallick of Dering Hall, Joe Lucas of Harbinger and Delta Wright of Curated.
