CHANGES IN LATITUDE, CHANGES IN ATTITUDE

ver the last decade, I have had an opportunity to
travel the world, attending some incredible design
events as an ambassador of KBB, KBIS and the
NKBA. As is usually the case, I come back both
inspired and eager to take on everything the future
has in store.
While the new products and trends are a big
reason we attend events, more times than not I
come back with an enhanced perspective and appreciation for the business
of global design. Plus, it's always good to run into some old friends and make
a few new ones along the way.

appreciation for beautiful - as well as functional
design - is present throughout the issue.
As we look ahead to next year, our team is hard
at work on the next edition of KBIS and our return to Las Vegas.We have a number of incredible
new features and initiatives in the works we will
be rolling out in the coming weeks and months,
some of which have come as a direct result of
your feedback.
