The Project

Design, Looking Forward

Reflection of the Future was a ten-day exhibition of future-facing design and craft at 501 9th Avenue, New York — more than forty participating firms and over 2,500 visitors, presented with academic and industry partners from three continents.

The exhibition is the founding team's proof of scale: an international roster, a full run of public programming, and an audience in the thousands. It anchors PACA's Crossings line — the work of bringing traditions and practices across borders and into conversation with this city.
