Three Days to D&B

Friday is the kickoff of the first <a href="http://bookfair.designersandbooks.com/">Designers & Books Fair</a>, taking place over three days at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) in Manhattan. I'm getting excited about the fair, which is split between the <a href="http://bookfair.designersandbooks.com/exhibitors/">exhibitors</a> and <a href="http://bookfair.designersandbooks.com/programs/">some great programs</a>. In regards to the latter, I'm happy to extend a <a href="http://bookfair.designersandbooks.com/pQps8a588d20/">Friends Ticket Offer</a> to readers of this blog. Most of the tickets are cut in half using the discount codes found on the <a href="http://bookfair.designersandbooks.com/pQps8a588d20/">offer page</a>, which lists all of the programs. Below is also a schedule of the programs (click image for <a href="http://media-cache-ec3.pinterest.com/upload/74168725084654574_rPyzwnhC.jpg">larger view</a>), and at bottom are my picks for the weekend, with links to the respective discount pages.<br /><br /><a href="http://media-cache-ec3.pinterest.com/upload/74168725084654574_rPyzwnhC.jpg"><img alt="d-b_sched.jpg" src="http://www.archidose.org/Blog/d-b_sched.jpg" title="Designers Book Schedule" /></a><br /><br /><div class="yiv246790772MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px;"><span class="yiv246790772Apple-style-span"><b>Buildings and Books: Four Architecture Critics in Conversation</b></span></div><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span id="yiv246790772OLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION" style="color: black;"><span id="yiv246790772OLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION" style="color: black;"><span id="yiv246790772OLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION"><span id="yiv246790772OLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION"><span id="yui_3_7_2_1_1351003330967_1141" style="border-collapse: collapse;
