NYCxDESIGN, taking place May 10–22, 2019 in New York City, spotlights designs and designers across disciplines through a panoply of trade shows, exhibitions, talks, installations and open studios. And while the artistic and digital sides of design often hold sway at these kinds of events, industrial design remains a key component of the organization's programming—owing in no small part to IDSA's involvement at the executive level and enduring presence in the New York City design community.
