A fun-filled flashback to the?inaugural Dublin Design Night, organised by Yelp Dublin and your own Image Interiors & Living…

So, the first ever Dublin Design Night happened last night and the city centre came alive with the chatter of happy interiors shoppers. In amongst the various design and crafts workshops and demos on offer, cocktails were imbibed, taster plates devoured, discounts snapped up… and nine of the city’s best interiors and gardening stores got to shoot the breeze with?customers old and new.

ICYMI, here’s a flashback to what went down on last night’s super-fun design trail, the first of many, we hope…
