Last night the Washington Design Center co-hosted a holiday fête complete with tablescapes created by DC interior designers.

The opening of the 2017 DC Design house is right around the corner and we have a list of your favorite Washington Design Centers participating this year.

Join the Washington Design Center for our annual Fall Design Day for CEU courses, new design products and network with industry leaders.

The Washington Design Center isn't just for shopping new luxury home decor, it is a place to meet and design as well!

Yesterday, March 30th, the Washington Design Center held it's second annual market day since moving into the Franklin Court location in DC.

It is time to gather and give back to our wonderful interior design community in the Washington, DC metropolitan area. This has been a wonderful year with two incredible markets in our new building at Franklin Court. Thank you to everyone who participated and attended. We hope to have an even bigger year in 2017 interior designers!

The Washington Design Center and DC Magazine invite you to join us for a holiday fete to toast the season on Wednesday, December 7, 2016. The event will start at 6:30 and RSVP is requested.

Washington DC interior designers love fabrics from Cowtan & Tout.

This month we decided to feature a few of those DC designers and their work showing off a little Cowtan & Tout as well!

Last week's market was a huge success thanks to the wonderful showrooms participating and the Washington design community as well. Over 700 people RSVP'd to attend and the building was packed from start to finish! We wanted to feature just a few of the photos taken by everyone that day and posted with the first annual Market Day hashtag. Browse them below.
