This is Design. Welcome.

With its countless labels and interpretations, the trinity of form, function, and aesthetics are encapsulated in a single word; design.

For more than 20 years, DesignNY has inspired curiosity and sparked readers’ imagination by actively sharing and promoting the talents, successes, and visions of the residential and commercial design communities across New York’s Central, Western, and Finger Lakes regions. This effort has always been in step with the pulse of Upstate’s design resurgence. 


Enter 2020, a year defined by chaos and introspection. In the spirit of this tumultuous, landmark year, DesignNY is expanding its offerings and emerging better than ever. The addition of a forward-thinking website and blog, DesignNY continues to engage form and function in its service to readers, tastemakers, and design professionals. 

The annual guide will continue to be DesignNY’s flagship product, actively promoting the talents and successes of our vast design community. 

What’s new? 

  • A website designed for its fresh content, simplicity of use, and image-rich experience. New content is showcased under “Now Trending.” The annual guide’s tradition of making “Features” and “An Insider’s Look” available online will continue. 

  • A comprehensive index of every business that has actively pursued, through DesignNY, connections with the lay audience. Professionals and lay readers will find it useful to identify service providers and vendors for their design teams.

  • A new blog, “This is Design” to provide continual, on-point ideas, trends, recommendations on all things design. Look for insights from professionals, style suggestions and resources to help you achieve and enjoy your design dreams. 

Above all, we continue to write about what we love; nurturing the artistry, ambitions, and relationships between people in our region’s design world.
