Few people are able to say they have been special guests in Times Square. Duggal Visual Solutions made that rarity a reality for 150 design professionals, architects and visual artists on May 14 to kick off NYCxDESIGN, New York City’s annual celebration of design spanning all five boroughs and more than a dozen disciplines.

VIPs of the Duggal InnoLab enjoyed complimentary food and cocktails on a private patio adjacent to Design Pavilion at 46^th Street and Broadway, surrounded by captivating installations, cutting edge visuals, stunning design and inspiring technologies. The InnoLab’s LUMIPIXELS™, a uniquely harmonious blend of light and graphics, provided an easy ice breaker and conversation starter for networking. Several high-profile publications, including Metropolis Magazine and The Architect’s Newspaper, covered the reception.

Special thanks to co-sponsors and guests of Duggal, Hunter Douglas and Avery Dennison.

Design Pavilion is open to the public from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. through May 20th.
