Afternoon Light Design Fair returns to New York City for its second year, now reimagined at the WSA building in Lower Manhattan — a former corporate tower transformed into a showcase of contemporary furniture, lighting, and design objects. The 2026 edition brings together more than 70 exhibitors, each meticulously curated around a shared vision of a better, more inventive way to live. It’s my favorite event during NYCxDesign week — to discover new brands, meet the brilliant creators behind emerging brands, and get a sense of where contemporary design is heading right now.
