200 Lex Celebrates House Beautiful’s Next Wave!
On Thursday, June 12, The New York Design Center toasted the House Beautiful Next Wave Class of 2025 with a lively soirée at the Gallery at 200 Lex. The 13 featured designers were joined by past Next Wavers and industry leaders for an evening celebrating emerging talent from across the country.
House Beautiful‘s Next Wave program honors rising stars in the design world, spotlighting creatives from diverse backgrounds and with distinct aesthetics. Each year, 200 Lex is proud to partner with House Beautiful to host this inspiring event and support the future of design.
For the occasion, the Gallery at 200 Lex was transformed into a vibrant exhibition space, showcasing all 13 designers and adding a playful element to what has become one of the most anticipated parties of the year. Guests were also treated to live music from a piano bar performer playing one of Edelweiss’s exquisite pianos, handcrafted in England. The performance brought an added layer of elegance to the celebration, placing luxury and timeless design at the forefront of the evening.
To kick off the festivities, the Next Wave designers gathered for a fabulous dinner at Jean’s, co-sponsored by 200 Lex, Kravet, and House Beautiful.
Congratulations to this remarkable group of talented designers. We can’t wait to see what’s next for the Class of 2025!
