The International Contemporary Furniture Fair returns in person to New York’s Javits Center May 15 to 17, 2022. The fair showcases new designs for the residential and contract markets from over 300 established and emerging brands from more than 25 countries, in addition to the ICFF Studio, a partnership with Bernhardt Design that highlights the work of the next generation of emerging talent. Here is a preview of some of the design debuts you’ll find at the fair.
Fractal Fluency Carpet Plank Collection, Mohawk Group
Mohawk’s new modular carpet collection uses fractal patterns that mimic stress-relieving qualities in nature. Available in two styles, mounted on Mohawk Group’s EcoFlex One backing, the 12" x 36" tiles are made from durable nylon using a carbon neutral process. mohawkgroup.com
Allaria Bath Collection, Brizo
Defined by curved, geometric shapes, this collection of bathroom fixtures features clear handles and a ribbon spout. Available in eight finishes, such as polished chrome and matte black, the collection also includes lavatory and tub filler configurations, custom shower trims and components, and coordinated accessories to finish the bath space. brizo.com
Center Drain Pro-Series, Infinity Drain
Available in three decorative styles, this 5" x 5" center and tile drain aims to meet the containment needs of specifiers and homeowners alike. Compatible with traditional and modern waterproofing techniques, the drain comes in five finishes, such as satin bronze and matte black, using U.S.-sourced materials. infinitydrain.com
Mulholland Chair, Bernhardt Design
Pasadena, Calif.–based designer Cory Grosser created a contemporary chair rooted in tradition and inspired by Hollywood’s Mulholland Drive. The shell functions as the seat, back, and armrests, blending into a solid ash frame, available in multiple finishes. A seat cushion provides additional comfort and can be customized by using contrasting textiles. bernhardtdesign.com
Combi Pendant Light, Koncept
The Combi Pendant series by Koncept adds new, customizable elements into otherwise static pendant designs. The 1.5" cylindrical light comes in five different lengths, all with an innovative 2-in-1 mounting capability for suspension and ceiling flush mounting. Over 10 optional attachments—such as glass shades, acoustic panels, and a cylindrical snoot—are available. koncept.com
The Walking Bench, Rottet Collection
The walking bench, designed by Lauren Rottet and the Rottet Collection, looks kinetic, as if the angled legs of the bench have the energy to walk inside or out. The longer the bench, the more legs are added, and the more visual energy it has. It comes in black marble, white marble, and custom options as well, and is part of a new collection, available this summer, that will include stone planters, fire pits, and indoor plants. rottetcollection.com
