WestEdge Design Fair is a three-day event that offers the best in modern design, all in an environment designed to engage, entertain and inspire. The fair offers the opportunity to shop from premium home furnishings brands – many new to the West Coast and meet the designers behind thousands of inspiring products. In addition, attendees gain insight from leading names in the design industry with a full series of educational programs and special events.

Presented by Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home, in partnership with Knoll and LALA Magazine and several sponsors, the opening evening was a benefit for the Venice-based non-profit organization, Safe Place for Youth.

The event kicked off with a silent auction featuring the Harry Bertoia Molded Shell Side Chair reimagined by 15 top Architecture & Design influencers. All proceeds from the auction benefit Safe Place for Youth whose mission is to inspire, nurture and empower the resilient human spirit of homeless youth by providing immediate and lasting solutions, one young person at a time.

“We are honored to have partnered with Safe Place for Youth for the first time this year,” said Megan Reilly, co-founder of WestEdge Design Fair. “LA’s art + design scene is growing rapidly, and we’re pleased to celebrate these one-of-a-kind pieces for a good cause at WestEdge 2018.”
