Character Traits Show at Trunk

Character Traits is latest show going on at Trunk in Dumbo. I went to the opening last night and saw some really fun work all featuring various types of text.

I especially love the new furniture brought in by designers Nightwood and the cool hanging lamps by Re Surface. Those very cool fabric flowers are made by Trunk's own Aimee G.

The pieces will be there all month, check them out at 68 Jay Street in Dumbo
