Pressed for Time: BKLYN Designs

May 7-9, St. Ann’s Warehouse, 38 Water St. (at New Dock St.), Brooklyn, 718-254-8779; $12.

Of course Brooklyn Designs. Brooklyn also eats, breathes, thinks and bleeds. Is Brooklyn not a man? This three-day festival brings together a slew of great Brooklyn design outfits and boutiques plus throws in nightly parties, daytime brunches and free coffee. Would we buy our taxidermy bric-a-brac or ultra-modern coffee tables anywhere else? Fuggedaboutit.

Bottom Line: This is like the Brooklyn Flea (and around the corner) but with new things for richer and more stylish folks.
