A quick Zillow search of homes for sale in Bergen county, New Jersey will turn up many traditional single-family homes for sale. Plan Architecture has, in a short amount of time, managed to corner the luxury residential design market in the tristate area, working closely with real estate agents. Yet their signature style is anything but traditional. Today on Disruptive Design, DNN Editor in Chief Courtney Porter sits down with Plan Architecture’s principal architect and interior designer, Dan D’Agostino, to discuss the ways their daring style is taking over, challenging the status quo, one new build at a time.
he New York Chapter of the International Furnishings and Design Association (IFDA NY), was out in full force to judge the exhibits at NY NOW, which showcases lines across the home, lifestyle, handmade and gift spectrum and is an IFDA NY Silver Industry Partner. Dondrill Glover, the new IFDA NY VP of Social Architecture & Global Harmony, turned things up a notch by instituting a new award category, SOCIAL IMPACT DESIGN.
The future of home design is going to be highly personalized, experiential, and hospitality and commercially influenced. While the Qoldfusion walk-in cold pantry works wonderfully in contemporary commercial exhibition kitchens they have their sights set on the residential market. “Today’s consumers are aspiring to be chefs… they want culinary spaces that mimic the commercial [kitchen], but with style and flair” says Qoldfusion founder Dale Seiden.
