Las Vegas Market
BY CAROLYN MUSE GRANT
The Las Vegas Market is the local shopping area for designers. “Las Vegas Market is the nation’s fastest growing gift and home décor market and the leading furniture marketplace in the western U.S. presenting 4,100+ gift, home décor and furniture resources in an unrivaled market destination. Las Vegas Market features thousands of gift, furniture and home décor lines, allowing for cross-category commerce among these industries.”
It is an amazing place to shop for designers and their clients, and new things are coming. Lee Hershberg, Vice President of Home Decor Leasing at the market tells us about “a new extension of work with the design community – a venue showing off kitchens and bathrooms.”
The LVDC Kitchen & Bath Resource Center was ready for the summer market. Several local designers were involved and we would like to introduce you to the Kitchen Concept designed by Cary Vogel and Lance Robins.
Vogel explained his venture. “We were delighted to have been invited to participate in the inaugural LVDC Kitchen & Bath Resource Center. This Resource Center was inspired by the Las Vegas design community’s need for a more comprehensive design center, bringing together onto one campus more of the local Las Vegas vendors related to home design and construction.”
“My kitchen will display state of the art appliances including a range from ILVE, in-wall coffeemaker provided by WOLF, a Samsung French door refrigerator, all through Monark Home, as well as porcelain slab countertops, so easy to maintain, and a porcelain floor tile providing a trompe l’oeil effect of a wood and marble chevron design, all from Walker-Zanger. Piano black cabinets with brass trim, custom made by Infinite Trend, make for a sophisticated space for both cooking and entertaining; counter stools from Vanguard Furniture, wall coverings from Thibaut, lighting from Currey & Co. All add to the timeless design appropriate for a home in Las Vegas or any other city.”
Nate Jones with Infinite Trend was selected as the cabinet supplier. “We were honored that Cary Vogel selected us. He came in with fresh ideas and we created a look for him that is totally unique, upscale and sophisticated.”
So be sure to stay with us to get more updates on what’s happened at our wonderful design arena in Las Vegas. More new experiences are coming.
