Seven unmissable exhibitions during New York design week

New York 2016: the annual NYCxDesign festival is underway, and Dezeen's Dan Howarth has selected seven of the showrooms and exhibitions not to miss during the citywide event.

NYCxDesign runs until 17 May 2016 across New York's five boroughs, although most of the action takes place in Manhattan and Brooklyn. It encompasses large exhibitions such as the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF), Wanted Design in both Brooklyn and Manhattan, designjunction + Dwell on Design, as well a host of smaller shows and presentations.
The fortnight-long festival kicked off with last week's Collective Design fair, where highlights included Fort Standard's material-focused furniture range, Nendo's products with sketch-like outlines, and an installation of nipple tiles.
