If you didn't make it to the Restaurant or Architectural Digest Home Show, do not fret, ICFF is just around the corner...
Around here, we're busy trying to finalize our booth design, among everything else that goes into the show. This year, we're focused on materiality, and displaying the unique experience FTS offers its customers in custom capabilities. Take a peek at what's going on...

Some of the material that we'll using to create "experiences" in our booth
We had such amazing help this year at the Architectural Digest Home Design Show. Honestly, we could not have designed and executed such a "show-stopping" booth (if I might say so myself) without the help of our diligent crew, who worked tirelessly and consistent long hours, as well as the generosity of Michael Tavano, Briggite Bouguet and Just Shades.
Here is a picture of JUMPA, our rockstar crew leader this season for the shows
Be sure to check out the beautiful fabrics and detail oriented construction of Michael Tavano. We worked with him on selecting and constructing the custom cushions for our Ingas Bench and Ligna chairs at the show. He is incredibly talented, and an absolute pleasure to work with:

Brigitte is also fabulously creative and like FTS, works entirely by hand. You may have seen her bright and cheery "Wobblies" in our Chelsea showroom. If not, you must visit her website, and come in to see the color samples. We can place orders for you from our 17th street location, but check her website too. Brigitte works out of her studio in Red Hook, Brooklyn, so she's a neighbor, and provided all of the crisp white ceramics at the show:
Just Shades in Soho was also a fantastic help to us during crunch time too. Our Custom Shade was produced and delivered in less than a week...def check them out for any shade needs...
