Las Vegas Market (LVM) is a premier home and hospitality design trade show that showcases thousands of furniture, lighting, décor, and textile brands. Held twice a year, LVM is where industry professionals gather to discover new collections, connect with vendors, and anticipate design trends for the seasons ahead. Imagine three buildings full of 5+ million square feet of showroom space, buzzing with 50,000 attendees, and over 3,500 exhibitors. It’s an invaluable opportunity to experience the latest innovations firsthand and ensure that the selections we bring back meet the high standards and distinctive styles our clients expect.
Each market visit provides insight into the latest industry movements—whether it’s innovative materials, emerging color palettes, or fresh takes on classic styles. Our team doesn’t just follow trends; they analyze them, filtering out what’s fleeting from what has true staying power. Beyond just product selection, Las Vegas Market also exposed us to a distinct West Coast aesthetic—something not as commonly seen in the Midwest. Observing these design influences firsthand gives us new inspiration for how to incorporate fresh ideas into our projects back home.
There’s no substitute for experiencing furniture and finishes in person. From testing the comfort of a lounge chair to assessing the craftsmanship of a custom table, our team ensures that the pieces we recommend meet our standards for quality, durability, and aesthetic appeal. Isabelle notes, “One of the biggest takeaways from this market was the opportunity to sit in the furniture we recommend to our clients. Seeing, touching, and experiencing these designs firsthand allows us to confidently bring selections back to them, knowing they look great and feel great too.” Meeting directly with reps also allows us to ask the right questions—whether about sustainability, lead times, or customization options—so that we can provide clients with the best possible solutions.
While exploring the latest collections, our team always keeps our clients in mind. We note pieces that align with their unique styles, whether it’s a tailored and timeless sofa for a residential project or durable yet elegant furnishings for a commercial space. Our goal is to make the design process as seamless and thoughtful as possible, ensuring that every recommendation is not only current but also a perfect fit for each unique project.
While our primary focus at Las Vegas Market is sourcing the best products for our clients, we also took time to explore the city’s vibrant atmosphere after hours. This year, our team dined at Vanderpump and The Bedford by Martha Stewart, both offering immersive interiors and thoughtful design details that sparked fresh inspiration.
