It may have only launched in 2018, but Shoppe Object is already one of our favorite design shows of the year. The semiannual New York City trade exhibition is a great way to discover new brands and get inspired—whether that means tracking down the perfect throw pillows or just unearthing an unexpected color palette. We always go armed with plenty of iPhone storage: You have to take pictures to remember everything! 

This year’s show, a treasure trove of decor in every color, material, and style on view over the course of an August weekend, just wrapped. If you couldn’t make it, don’t worry—we have you covered. We narrowed down the list of designers our editors loved at the fair to these eight:

Resin Puzzle Table, Tina Frey Designs (Coming soon)
Shop

This resin table (actually, Frey’s entire resin collection) was such a showstopper at the design fair, we had to include it—even if it doesn’t technically launch until later in the fall. Keep an eye on her site for updates.
