About two weeks ago, I had the pleasure of attending the 2nd edition of the Best of Italian Design.

The Best of Italian Design is a two-day event dedicated to Italian design innovation. It’s a great event for industry professionals to network with other design professionals, tour seven prestigious Italian furniture rooms, while enjoying a Food Design Contest among five Italian chefs.

Day 1 included a Showroom experience party that included a Food Design Contest featuring signature dishes from five chefs based in local Italian restaurants, as well as a tour of seven Italian furniture showrooms.

Day 2 took place all day at the Moore Building with a robust program of industry panel discussions, as well a design aperitivo and networking.

If you follow me on Instagram, you already saw a sneak peek of my behind the scenes experience of Day 1 of the Best in Italian Design. Unfortunately, I was only able to attend Day 1. Photos from Day 2 are courtesy of the Italy-America Chamber of Commerce Southeast.

Thanks to Guilia from The Italy-America Chamber of Commerce Southeast (IACC) for inviting me!

I truly enjoyed the event! Here’s my recap in photos:
