American Leather Hosts Panel with Design and Brand Experts

Great design transcends aesthetics; it captures emotion and feeling. "Selling the Experience of Design" featuring a panel of international design and branding leaders, will explore how designers and brands communicate intangible elements—emotion, experience and sensory immersion—when marketing their work.

The event is presented by American Leather and will take place April 26, at 4:00 PM in the company’s showroom on the 5th floor of Showplace. Following the discussion, attendees are invited to join American Leather's exclusive Saturday evening party, 5:00-9:00 PM.

Led by moderator Ericka Saurit, founder and creative director of Saurit Creative, the discussion will delve into crafting compelling narratives and immersive brand experiences that connect with clients on a deeper level.
