The third edition of Interior Lifestyle USA, held in conjunction with the World Market Center, took place July 25-28 at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. A high-end collection of more than 100 selected exhibitors provided an exclusive opportunity for buyers looking for new products in home textiles and home accents. The Las Vegas Summer Market continues to establish a new standard for the World’s finest products and resources in home décor.
Enhancing the look and feel of Interior Lifestyle USA was the special showcase, “Design Plus” from the world-renowned Ambiente trade show in Frankfurt, Germany. Designers and retailers were drawn to this innovative and unique trend presentation to obtain new ideas and fresh concepts.
