HOW Conference 2010: Mohawk is there … Felt & Wire, too!

If you’re attending the HOW Design Conference June 6–9 in Denver, stop by and see the new Mohawk booth — #107. On show will be Mohawk’s latest offerings, including the Mohawk Studio Collection, the new Loop line of sustainable papers and more. And of course our Felt & Wire contributors and friends will be on hand.

One highlight will be the introduction of Mohawk’s new Studio Collection, a line of colored papers specifically created for Hewlett Packard’s new white ink. Conveniently enough, the HP booth is right next door, so you can see a live demonstration of HP’s white ink on the Studio Collection papers.

As an avid Felt & Wire reader, your thoughts are vital to us. Stop by the Felt & Wire counter and let us know how you like the recent redesign, what your favorite posts are, and if you have any ideas for stories we should consider. And please let us know about your experiences with the Felt & Wire Shop, which continues to grow with vigor … just like your talents!

Mohawk Fine Papers is the official sponsor of the conference’s opening night reception. We hope to see you there.
