Dining by Design: DIFFA 2013 Tablescapes

An AR favorite designed by Ali Tayar
for Interior Design Magazine & Wolf Gordon

The annual Dining by Design tablescapes for DIFFA took place at this years Architectural Digest Home Show at Pier 94 from March 21-23. The tablescapes represented the creative vision of each participating designer or organization. The Dining by Design media sponsors were: The New York Times, Manhattan Magazine and Architectural Digest. The theme this year was sustainability, with the hopes that each designer will repurpose or recycle as much of the installation as possible.  The tables and designs ranged from very simple and plain to absolutely creative.  All the tables are featured below.

DIFFA's Dining By Design Tables: 2012

DIFFA (Design Industries Foundation Fighting Aids)  is an organization who brings designers and design companies together to produce the Dining By Design Event at the Architectural Digest Show at the Javitts Center, NY. They kick off with an exclusive gala before opening to the public. While some table tops consisted of simple and standard designs, other really expressed the designer's creativity through their use of colors, patterns and materials. DIFFA's Dining by Design is a wonderful showcase of inspiration. Scroll all the way down for pictures and for a link to see last year's tablescapes!
