Designers Thom Filicia, Michelle Nussbaumer and Timothy Corrigan will talk about getting “Ahead of the Curve” on a panel at the upcoming Las Vegas Furniture Market.

At the event, Tuesday, July 29, at 10 a.m. in building B’s WorldView Ballroom, retailers and interior designers can get an exclusive preview of the hottest new trends and designs in home furnishings and décor through the these three top taste makers.

Moderated by Today Show contributor, design author and tastemaker Susanna Salk, the presentation offers CEU-accreditation to interior designers. Immediately following this panel discussion, a meet-and-greet and book signing with the panelists, along with lunch, will be held in the Safavieh showroom (A-101) from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

These top design authorities will scour the 5 million square feet of showrooms at Las Vegas Market, and share their top picks during a live panel discussion and via social media channels, which will include a question and answer segment. The best-of-the-best product will be “on set” during the live panel discussion allowing these taste makers to share more intimately with the audience what’s hot from market, plus their insights on incorporating these fashion-forward styles into current design projects. 

"I am so excited about the designers we are hosting this year: Thom, Michelle and Timothy’s energy and passion for design is infectious. Exploring the market through their eyes will be invaluable to anyone attending. It's not just about what trends they see; it's understanding what they love and why," Salk said. “The best part will be putting many of their favorite pieces on stage for our panel audience to see up close!"
