When I attended Shoppe Object (New York’s most important trade market for home goods and gifts) last year, I couldn’t imagine the roster of exhibitors could get any bigger. Yet, this year it did — in fact it grew so much that the market had to find a new showroom space, inside the iconic Starrett-Lehigh Building in Chelsea.
The Starrett-Lehigh Building, originally built in 1930, is the new home for Shoppe Object 2025 occupying its massive 3rd and 4th floorsBest if you pre-register and print your badge before arrival so save you some waiting in lineThe show is divided into 2 floors and you may have some trouble finding your favorite vendors with the new layout.
