/PRNewswire/ -- The global design community is once again making
plans to gather in Chicago this

Market District will welcome top design professionals and
enthusiasts to enjoy product launches, exhibits, and events from
Monday, June 10 – Wednesday, June 12, during the second annual

Hosted in Chicago – an
epicenter of awe-inspiring architecture, cultural institutions, and
one of the world's most famous shopping streets, Magnificent Mile –
FMDD is where the architecture and design community come together
in Fulton Market, the city's preeminent design destination.
With over 40,000 professionals visiting last year's inaugural
Fulton Market Design Days, the neighborhood of brands in the area
have once again joined together to further enhance this year's
events and logistics for out-of-town guests planning to visit
premier design showrooms in Chicago.
This year, Fulton Market Design Days will feature pop-ups,
giveaways, street-side screenprinting activations, exhibits, and a
central Welcome Center at Morgan & Fulton where guests can meet
and network, coordinate plans, and learn about individual events
throughout the area.
"There is nothing better than June in Chicago, and this year Fulton Market District
will be in full swing serving as a top destination for design,
networking, and socialization," said Armando Chacon, President of the West Central
Association - Chamber of Commerce. "We have seen continued
expansion in the Fulton Market District, with new brands,
restaurants and retail spaces opening to our vibrant community. We
are excited to experience all our businesses have to offer to the
architecture and design community."
