Walnut Creek, CA, Sept. 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- New York City will be the hub of the design world from October 3-5, 2023, as Lumens, the premier online design destination for consumers and trade professionals, presents the first Lumens Design Experience at NeueHouse Madison Square. This three-day exhibition will showcase nine top design brands in the furniture and lighting space, welcoming FLOS, Stickbulb, Buster + Punch, Vistosi, Michael Anastassiades, DESIGNHEURE, Moooi, Louis Poulsen and Audo Copenhagen, along with media partners Interior Design and The Grand Tourist.
