Product Runway
Nov 30, 2011
On November 14th, 16 of the industry’s top design firms took on the ultimate design challenge—Product Runway—a showcase of couture creations to raise funds for scholarships through NEWH Greater New York. The challenge: three months, $500, and $500 of select material from a sponsoring manufacturer, ranging from stone and tile to carpet and wallcovering. Project Runway alums—Kevin Christiana (Season 4), Suede (Season 5), and Joshua McKinley (Season 9)—judged the impressive designs runway-style at Marquee nightclub, where more than 400 industry professionals gathered to see the looks firsthand. And the winners are: ICRAVE and Swarovski (grand prize); B.R. Guest Hospitality and Artistic Tile (first runner-up); and Gensler and Palecek (second runner-up). ICRAVE receives a $1,000 scholarship to be donated to the school of their choice and can exhibit the winning design at the NEWH Greater New York Regional Tradeshow in June 2012.

Thanks to the event sponsors: Cheng Meng, DLC, Durkan, Fabric Innovations, Flexsteel Hospitality, Grohe, HIConnect Design, iWORKS, JC Furniture, MTS, Southfield, and Stacy Garcia. Check out all of the amazing designs here. Photography by Peter Kubilus
