This November was our first time exhibiting at WestEdge Design Fair, and it proved to be an energizing way to close the year. Much of the conversation centered on recovery from the Palisades fires. Designers from across the region were assessing the projected rebuilding timeline and how it will influence client expectations and project planning.
Much of the programming created space for candid, productive dialogue thanks to the panels featuring area designers. They compared approaches, shared practical strategies and offered perspective on what the next few years may hold. It was a powerful lineup, thanks in part to the WestEdge organizers and contributor Josh Cooperman of Convo by Design.
For Nathan Anthony, WestEdge gave us the chance to connect with many of you and to share our approach as an L.A. manufacturer focused on customization and thoughtful craftsmanship. Our booth featured miniature 3D-printed versions of some of our most popular upholstery designs. I loved watching designers and attendees delighted by these maquettes.
In our booth, we enjoyed meeting with designers from Los Angeles, Palm Springs, Santa Barbara, Pasadena and beyond, including Claudia Afshar, Stephen Pappas, Rachel Moriarty and Jeanne and Raymond Chung of Cozy Stylish Chic.
WestEdge made it clear how interconnected this community is and how much we gain when we collaborate, especially in seasons of change.
As we step into 2026, we remain focused on supporting your work with the customization, craft and partnership you expect from us. I’m excited for what’s ahead
