Wednesday, March 22nd the Emerging Designer Events series traveled to its first, and truly one of a kind children's furniture manufacturer and vintage collector. Kinder Modern's curb appeal may be their kid-sized iconic furniture pieces but there was more than meets the eye at the Gallery. Founder, Lora Appleton, gave the group a first-hand look at their vintage collection, their manufactured collection, Studio Kinder and their newest rug collection, Kinder Ground.

The group was blown away how high design could be practiced in such tiny examples. Having spent years in search of the finest examples of children's furniture, Appleton has acquired quite the eye for emerging talent and worthy vintage finds that will last her clients a lifetime. It's both quality and quantity at the Kinder Modern Gallery and the ASID New York Metro group really embraced their direction. 

"I was thrilled to host the ASID Emerging Designers at kinder MODERN. I found the group very insightful and thoroughly enjoyed sharing my collection. We talked quite in-depth about my most beloved subject: child design, and the historical and current importance. I look forward to future ASID fun." – Lora Appleton, Kinder Modern Founder
