Materiality and social justice showcased in three public installations forming NYCxDESIGN’s 2023 Design Pavilion

NYCxDESIGN has unveiled details of Design Pavilion 2023, which will see three public installations constructed across the city. Described as “New York’s premier public design exhibition,” the installations will be on display from October 12-22 during Archtober, the city’s month-long celebration of architecture.
