Coverings 2007
By danielle
After a weeklong adventure in Chicago, I am happy to report that Coverings 2007 was quite the success. Chicago’s very-own Mayor Daley walked the show floor, the design-calendar girls partied it up with tile & stone enthusiasts at the Chicago Illuminating Company and the House of Blues, and we sat-in on some amazing seminars presented by industry icons including architect Richard Meier.
Let the festivies begin!

Innovative new products were on display throughout the convention center. This exhibit was designed by Bernard Tschumi Architects and included a cafe (check out all those people enjoying some delicious Italian pasta).
