In an industry that increasingly favors fashionable looks over cookie-cutter designs, it is no surprise that Surfaces is aiming to draw more designers and architects to the show. To that end, show organizers are offering a focused slate of events with an eye toward giving design professionals the best tools to maximize their time at Surfaces, scheduled for Feb. 7-9 at the Sands Convention & Expo Center in Las Vegas. Called the Designer/Architect Show Package, the multi-day program includes targeted workshops and seminars, a special keynote luncheon with famed decorator Benjamin Noriega-Ortiz and a networking reception geared specifically to the A&D community.
